    Knocks out the broker totally.

    Knocking out brokers sounds like a good idea.

    No it doesn't. Go By Truck is a broker. They charge a little over ten percent commission on all carrier fees; which is less than most brokers. Their lower commission is their strategy for saving shippers money. The only way to not deal with a broker is to deal with the shipper.

    I have much more faith in businesses/websites that have clear & complete details on costs and how they operate.
    That said, I see that gobytruck.com has literally almost 0 details, so you can guess where I'm going with that...

    Yes, I didnt like their forthright listing of what was available before I divulged my info with them. Granted I am only researching costs for possible future work.

    I'm actually a customer solutions expert at Go By Truck and I see a few of you have some questions. We've just recently launched gobytruck.com and we love hearing your feedback. We are a transparent, free marketplace and display the flat 10% throughout the application once logged in but you have a great point in that it should be printed up front. Consider it done!

    A few of the differences between Go By Truck and a traditional freight broker are that we are simply the platform for you to deal directly with the shipper. You set your own rates, while we handle the invoicing, payment, paperwork, auditing and even pay carriers immediately upon delivery.

    Go By Truck has been developing this all-encompassing application for over two years.

    I would be happy to answer any questions you have or to show you one on one how it can work for you.
