FAQs
A freight carrier is a company or individual that specializes in transporting goods or cargo from one location to another using various modes of transportation like trucks, trains, ships, or planes.
To become a freight carrier, establish a legal business entity, obtain necessary licenses, permits, and insurance, acquire or lease trucks, and establish relationships with shippers and brokers. Compliance with industry regulations and building a reliable reputation is key.
The four types of freight carriers include trucking companies (trucks), rail carriers (trains), air cargo carriers (planes), and ocean carriers (ships). Each specializes in transporting goods via a specific mode of transportation.
Freight brokers find carriers through various methods like online load boards, carrier databases, industry networking, referrals, and establishing relationships with reliable carriers through direct communication and negotiation.
To find freight carriers, you can utilize online load boards, carrier directories, freight brokerages, industry referrals, networking, and contacting logistics companies, like Flock, for access to their carrier network.
