Explain this brokers, no one available to load/unload.

You post shipments. Call the driver maybe 3, or 4 times between pick up and delivery to make sure the truck is ok.
And then at either or both shipper and receivers when the truck arrives no one is able to load or unload the truck.

And it's not a mishap, it's that they didn't know the truck was coming, or if the shipment is ready.

Why can't brokers call both shippers and receivers to make sure someone knows to load or unload a truck? And your reply is "after 2 hours of waiting we will pay after that?" Bullcrap

 

Because the brokers place THEIR number in place of the shippers and receivers

 

I don't know about driver's but yea for dispatchers same goes. But from what I have seen, is that most brokers want to call the driver several times a day, and not even bother to call shippers and receivers

 

Lol. Are you kidding. The driver has to show up and talk to people to at both locations. It's not like he can't do it when he gets there.

But anyway, the place I am at doesn't even have a forklift here to unload the truck. And guess what, I have to waste 2 good hours of my time FOR FREE before getting a dime.

 

I do use the internet to contact people before I show up at both shippers and receivers. But....
