What are the best brokers to use?

What kind of equipment are you running????? Reefer-Flatbed-Dry Van????

 

some guys might find it easier to help you if you give a little more info

 

rolling coal pulls a van and I have a feeling he does ok. Read alot of his posts, even his old ones. In all honesty theres no short cut to experience and sharpening your teeth.

I pull open deck so what I say might not mean a thing but the jist is the same, dont haul cheap , stand your ground and know your worth. No matter what trailer you pull

 

When I pulled reefers, the company preferred CH Robinson because they pay fast. The company didn't have any problems with them like some 0/0's say they had. Never got stuck in California or South Florida either by using them.

 

Check OOIDA website. Good website for information and also load boards.

Check Farm2Fleet website and Paramount Freight Systems.

Farm2Fleet will keep you running hard & CH Robinson is also good.

 

there's also a facebook group called Rate Per Mile Masters where you can learn all about load board strategies.

 

Trulos is a free load board which has contact info. You might want to check it out and try calling on some of the loads. Most brokers who dont know you will ask for your MC number to see if your a registered carrier in there system before they discuss much. I think you will find once your up and running you will most likely deal with just a handful of brokers, mainly larger ones like Landstar etc. Sometimes USexpress or Schneider will have some good paying loads advertised on there for dry vans.
