Why hire just a freight broker when you can have a carrier also?
Choosing a combined broker-carrier gives you a single point of accountability and eliminates unnecessary handoffs, streamlining communication and compliance. This model offers the rate-negotiating power of a broker alongside the direct reliability and equipment access of an active carrier.
We’re more than a freight brokerage — we’re also a licensed carrier with the ability to pick up partial or full loads using our vans or box trucks.
We understand every part of the transportation process, from dispatching and compliance to delivery and customer communication. Being a licensed carrier, we have the capability to haul your freight directly. Our team combines over seven years of dispatching and logistics experience with advanced technology to move your shipments safely and efficiently nationwide. Whether you need full or partial loads, our vans and box trucks are ready to deliver on time and on target.
