I just read this article on Forbes. It seem like the trucking industry might replace the brokers with apps soon. How do you feel a bout this?

Thus article that just came out is saying apps are going to cut out the brokers because it's is cheaper and easier.

Hmm, that's pretty cool. I wonder why it took so long?

Sounds like more hinky crap to me. Uber gets away with it because taxis aren't anywhere near as regulated as we are. There's so many ways this can go sideways it's not even funny... especially if you are a carrier.
STexan and Meade Trucking Thank this. -
I like the concept but it might not cut out anyone if the brokers are the ones listing the loads. And might actually open up more loads to those that are willing to run it cheaper than you. Either way, someone is going to yell.
Is it like an App for a Load Board?
I don't use them so I am clueless. -
