    How do you get loads for a flatbed gooseneck with a dove tail other than just cars?

    That's because everyone is watching "Shipping Wars" on A&E!That hold show was made for people to sign up for uship but I think it backfire on Matt(owner and founder of Uship).Now in last few weeks everyone wants to be a hot shot till they book 12 loads and uship doesn't let transporters accept cash on delivery.

    As long as the freight bill is paid by the shipper/receiver to the carrier they are acting as an agent for them. If they paid the carrier themselves then that is brokering.
