Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about this service.

How do you know what rate to negotiate for?+
We use real-time data from DAT, Truckstop, and our own historical data to understand current market rates for every lane. We also factor in season, demand, and special circumstances.
Do you ever accept the broker's first offer?+
Rarely. Even if the initial offer seems good, we almost always negotiate. Markets fluctuate, and brokers typically start low expecting negotiation.
What if the broker won't budge on rate?+
If we've negotiated hard and the broker won't move, we'll present you with the best offer and let you decide if it meets your requirements. We never force you to take a load.
Can you negotiate detention time rates?+
Absolutely. We negotiate detention rates (typically $25-75/hour) upfront when booking the load, so there's no confusion if delays occur.
Do you negotiate on dedicated lanes too?+
Yes. For dedicated lanes or regular customers, we can negotiate contract rates and terms that provide consistent, predictable income.
