Brokers for New Authorities | Episode 32
One of the most common questions I get from people starting a new trucking company is how to find loads when so many brokers won’t work with you. Even though we have had other episodes that talk about finding loads, I still get a lot of questions specific to getting through that first 90 days when your options with brokers is limited. So… I decided to do a full episode dedicated to just that.
What to Expect From Episode 32
Craig and I dive into the specifics of working with brokers who will accept a brand new trucking company with a brand new trucking authority. We also talk about a list I created of brokers who will work with new authorities. Service and professionalism is the key.
The list of brokers and some more pointers are available for free at motorcarrierhq.com. If you have found some other larger brokers who work with new trucking companies, let us know in the comments below.
