WHAT IS A FREIGHT BROKER?

A freight broker is a company that arranges for the movement of cargo by finding trucks to match to a shipper’s open shipment.  They handle the whole process for their shippers, from finding trucks to scheduling deliveries.  Brokers are the best link to thousands of independent trucking companies located throughout the United States.

Freight brokers provide an important and valuable service to both carriers and shippers, helping carriers fill the trucks, and helping shippers find reliable carriers that they might not have otherwise known about.

WHY USE A FREIGHT BROKER?

Many businesses have limited resources to staff an in-house logistics department.  Instead, they source that work out to a freight management provider or freight broker.

Plus, freight brokers are in daily communication with the trucking and transportation industries and have the expertise to negotiate competitive freight rates while maintaining the customer’s delivery schedule.

WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER A FREIGHT BROKER WHEN SELECTING A FREIGHT SUPPLIER?

The biggest advantage a freight broker has is they do not own any assets.  Regardless of if the shipper needs 5 trucks or 50 trucks a freight broker can source it, while a traditional carrier can only provide what they have available at that given moment. In addition, if a shipper needs a specific trailer type a broker can source it while a carrier is limited to only what they own.  Brokers are like a utility knife…they can do just about anything that is asked of them!

WHY SHOULD I CHOOSE A BROKER INSTEAD OF HIRING A TRUCKING COMPANY DIRECTLY?

Trucking services vary and finding the best way to ship your goods while holding down costs can be a real challenge. Excelling in different lanes, some trucking companies do better with full loads while others with LTL. Fremont Transportation Services specializes in finding the carrier best suited for our customer’s needs.

HOW CAN A FREIGHT BROKER COMPETE ON PRICE WITH A TRADITIONAL CARRIER?

Freight Brokers do not compete on price instead they compete on service.  Price is only as good as the capacity that is behind it.  If a traditional carrier’s capacity is booked when you need it then the rate they gave you becomes a moot point.   However, since a broker has the ability to source from any carrier their rate is always backed by capacity.
