Helpfull. Thank you

If Broker told you to take this load back to the shipper if something happened at receiver, so Broker should be paid for that right

Reefer box trucks are typically local/regional. They don't go long distances. Plus the reefer boxes are charging roughly the same. Given the fact that small truck carriers don't take as good care of their assets, you're better off with a 53ft even on 3-4 pallets or less

For a small carrier, costs are alway 100%

Tell me how this is a free market when the shippers and our elected officials bring drivers from other countries to come and cut the rates down? This is a manipulated market. These flip flop wearing drivers have no homes, they live in their trucks year round. How is anyone able to compete with that? They are cheating! They flood the market with these drivers just to make sure the rates stay down. “There’s and driver shortage” BS! How about not giving your freight to these foreigners and we’ll see how long it takes for the rates to come up? But you won’t do that will you? No, because brokers take advantage of their position. This is why we need transparency.

The trucking industry plays a vital role in transporting goods across the U.S. Over the years, the industry has evolved, embracing technological advancements and adapting to changing market conditions. One such condition is the steady upward trend of the operational costs of trucking, which reached a record-high in 2022 - only for that record to be broken in 2023. ATRI’s recent cost analysis update “found that the marginal costs of trucking, while increasing by just 0.8 percent over [2022], reached a new high of $2.270 per mile.”

Hey F360 thanks for the quick response! Very helpful to see the point of view from someone in the industry. I should have asked this question as well, if I were to do w2 and then in a year become an agent under the same brokerage would they still not let me keep those customers I had already serviced as a w2 employee?

That just sounds like a bunch of 💩This country is taxing us to death and there's a fee for everything. When was the last time anyone looked at an itemized hotel receipt. you would be shocked about the nonsense you having to pay fees for. Sorry! I'm just a bit upset, we get tax hikes all the time or state and local fees, that we are expected to pay, but no one ever challenges them as to why, not to mention why we send so much money over to other countries that will never send anything back...Ok! I'm done...Thank you ☺

100% agree with Ben. I believe most trucking companies do not know there cost per mile and expenses.

Hey Guys. Im a one man team Carrier. Im looking to become a full time broker and getting rid of the carrier. My questions is what’s the best way to get into brokering with no brokering experience. Would a w2 salary with commission be a good option to learn? Or would an agent option be best?

Brokers really are trying to justify what a one carrier is”willing” to move a load vs another carrier? Wow. Brokers often do zero real work and get in the way. A good quality carrier Skillman cares about his business will bypass the brokers and go direct. Brokers prey so don’t be their free food by running to make $250/ day. You’ll go broke real quick and they don’t care.

I am new broker and got the BMC 85

I work in the international department at a brokerage.

How’s it going

Bunch of Libs

What do you guys know about Fedex Customs Critical and Panther Logistics and offering a similar service. Also, I would like to know your guys’ thoughts on 26’ Reefer box trucks w/ liftgate. Is it worth the capacity for up to 12 pallets reefer/frozen LTL? Also Hazardous Materials Insurance and the ins & outs with the 5 million dollar policy.

yes carrier411 has 500 letter rebuttals

'I done a lot of business with my customer, meeting their needs by being the cheapest option and maintaining those rates all year. Would it make sense for me to approach them with an offer to lower rates even further, but in exchange for guaranteed high-volume freight? Is that a realistic strategy? My goal is to gain control of the majority of their freight, knowing that they currently work with two other freight brokers and carriers handling the same shipments as I do

This dude defiantly used gpt to write his article.

Stagflation in the United States in the 1980s was characterized by high inflation and high unemployment. This help

Great info guys. And as Nate said, carriers can go straight to shippers but we all know most won't

Thanks for your videos. I have a question. I'm a freight broker, and I have a potential customer she sends stuff to Amazon. But for some reason, Amazon doesn't accept brokers. How can I do business with her as a broker? I guess it has to be marked as authority for hire or something like that. Do or can I use a carrier authority? How can I go about this legally, of course? Thank you

How about when a broker tell you that you have a 3:00 pm delivery and you get there on time and they tell you. Sorry you don’t have an appointment for today. Now the broker want you to sit there for two or three day and only $150.00 layover fee . Can they freight guard you if you return the load?

Terrible analogy. Comparing apples to oranges. In any other industry that involves a broker, every party that is involved knows exactly who is getting paid what and how much is fair right from the jump. Look at real estate. Both buyer and seller agents know the exact percentage, and even have industry standards they use, of how much they are going to make from the jump. As well as the broker. Nothing is hidden and fair wages are paid. Brokers really should have a set percentage price and if they want more money they should negotiate with the shipper better. Thats the way it was. There wasn’t all these pop up brokerages that they have now. Used to have a good broker you build a relationship with and they would go find you great loads. Both carriers and brokers did right by each other

Why doesn’t the broker be upfront with the carrier on the financial details of the shipment that establishes trust and transparency and environment that everybody can win… So question is why don’t you be upfront and what you’re making? The problem is it’s not a win-win for both Carrier and broker winning is not defined as taking advantage of people that don’t know better

YES Tariffs RAISE PRICES

Omg, we're doomed

this is the best explaination for the contingent policy thank you so much

In 2022, transportation contributed $1.7 trillion (6.7%) to the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP). This is made up of three types of transportation activities: For-hire transportation: $0.9 trillion (3.5% of GDP) In-house transportation: $0.4 trillion (1.4% of GDP) Household transportation: $0.5 trillion (1.8% of GDP) BUT WHERE IS THAT MONEY GOES!!!! GUESS MAKE A GUESS !!!

Can you explain power only with load outs? Thanks

So, will the carriers take a loss, WHEN we as freight brokers take a loss on a load. Waiting for a carrier to answer.

We have a smaller economy everybody needs to get used to it. Give $2.00 Gallons of fuel and $5,000 a year less on insurance premiums, and we would be great 😅

There should be no delays in the first place if a carrier arrives on time get them unloaded, or loaded raise it to $250.00 an hour after 2 hours, and let's see what happens. Like the lumpers deal I don't take loads that I have to talk to a lumper services it should be prepaid get the truck unloaded.........my rate is my rate your margins are yours and out to the next load it's hard. Let's make money 💰

I don't care what you guys make as long as you pay me COD😅

Ben, you hit it right on the head . It's what I have bin saying with freight leaving FL. Why are carriers taking loads to Atlanta for $350.00. Asking government for more involvement is 🤪

I’m in a food coma!!!🫃lol

Happy Thanksgiving Nate & Ben 🦃🍂! From Pitt Freight Company 3PL Freight Brokerage out of Fort Wayne, Indiana.

So can you guys do an episode about being a broker with assets works? I am a broker and im also trying to start a small courier/transportation business,i don't want to be labeled as a double broker,this is very confusing,Thanks!

With load outs what are the MC age requirements, and if you have 10?to deliver do you have to go in the direction of the drop off place

This was great and educative🙏🏻

What are your thoughts on the fact that the tariffs are going to have the exact opposite effect that everyone in freight seems to think it will have? In other words, why would anybody think tariffs would do anything but raise the price for the consumer? The obvious answer is they are eating up the lies that a particular politician and his sycophants are screaming at the top of their lungs. But do you have any industry explanations as to why so many people would believe these lies?

Very educational video guys - Thank You - QUESTION - You mention SELECTUS load board for smaller loads, for pick-up trucks and hot loads and LTL....I can't seem to find their weblink.....Is that spelt correctly ?.......Could you kindly provide the weblink to Selectus please ?

Hello, my name is Jeleel, I'm new to the freight broker business. I want you guys to help me; I have all my documentation and registration in place. But I definitely need a mentor to guide me through this. I'm a small business owner. Thanks.

Why does a back haul pay less? Like for instance Cali to FL $7,800 for a 1n1 but then to FL back to Cali $2,000 for a 1n3 ? Like wtf is the broker keeping the rest the rest ? I think so prime example I watched a load from Florida going from 2,000 to $4,200 within a 2 hr window and even then I bet that broker made money even on that. You guys are just beating around the bush saying don’t blame you guys for everyone’s fixed finances. No one cares about that just the pay. We care about is how rates are for example if I would have taken that load for $2,000 that broker would have made an extra $2,000 on top of the profit there already making that’s what bs. With over head put aside on both ends carriers & brokers why would the broker make 100% + more that’s what’s wrong with the market you guys don’t have caps. And talking about your lil $75,000 bond insurance hahahahahaha that’s cute my monthly insurance payment prob cost you whole annual insurance fee. Regardless you shouldn’t make more than the owner operator the one actually doing the work. You guys don’t take losses all you do is go back to the customer and say hey that lane is up so much % and they say yes or no come on with playing games
