How many loads can a broker move without trucks? ZERO "0" None. You are BROKE without trucks.
How many loads can trucks move without brokers???? EVERY ONE.
How do you not understand this. You obviously don't understand so I'll explain it to you in a little more detail.
Brokers were born our of a lack of the technology that exists now. 30 years ago, many companies had their own logistics divisions to arrange their freight. Brokers and 3PL's show up and say "We have relationships with thousands of trucks, we can do this for you and you can save money if you fire your logistics people". That was your "IN". Shippers got lazy and started relying on brokers.
With the technology that is available now, there is little to no reason for shippers to go direct to load boards (to do the same thing that you do) and find their own trucks. Maybe even build a relationship with the good service providers.
I'm sure that I missed it but where is the broker "necessary"??TheLoadOut and User666 Thank this. -
