Question for the Brokers

nfn3vet said: ↑

Actually double brokering IS illegal. The reason brokers don't like it is not only the quality of customer service but the liability involved as well. If a customer tenders a load to a broker who gives it to a carrier, the carrier should have all of the info he needs as far as pick up and delivery requirements. When that carrier gives it to another carrier who does the broker go to for information on his load. He has a customer to service but who is servicing him? Now lets say the 2nd carrier has an accident that is 100% the driver's fault. Who's insurance do you suoppose the victim's family is going after. Whoever has the deepest pockets. Now lets take it another direction. Lets say the 2nd carrier turns around and double brokers it. And then the the 3rd carrier. and somewhere in there the load is stolen. these are the reasons it's illegal. And for those of you that think it's not I need to introduce you to an FBI agent that I dealt with last year involving this exact issue and a carrier from the north east who not only did that to my load but a history with the feds with doing it with others

Co-brokering and double brokering are not the same...
