Well... y'all who hate brokers should be deliriously overjoyed to know that U-Ship PRO is busily working at cutting out the middlemen (brokers)...
Of course, their object is to provide the lowest transportation cost to shippers.
Shippers don't need brokers?

This seems simple to me. If you don't like dealing with brokers then get on the phone, print some business cards and start knocking on shipper doors and get your own direct shippers. Brokers are not going to work for free. You should not expect brokers or anyone to work for free. Either brokers should be regulated to a fixed rate, which would involve government intervention, or just don't worry about what the broker makes. As long as you get the rate you want, it shouldn't really make a difference what the broker makes. If you deal with a broker, they are your customer. If you deal direct with the shipper, then they are your customer.

Danny, of course I won't provide a discount. We are offering a service of give us x% of you business and you have a single point of contact. We will run it on our assists or get the load covered. End results for the customer is the same. They send over a list of loads that need to be covered and we cover them.
But I suspect you get all this and are just playing the dullard to yank peoples chain. But it is fun to read all the experts that complain about silly things like FSC in the spot market. -
