Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a Broker authority to be a Broker? Yes. You must have both a DOT number and an active Broker authority to broker freight legally in the US and post your shipments on load boards.

Is a Broker the same thing as a Dispatcher? No. A dispatcher works for a carrier and negotiates the highest pay for the carrier. A broker is an independent agent who is required to have an authority and negotiates the highest rate for themselves.

What insurance do I need? You will need $75,000 surety bond or trust in order for your authority to be approved. We can connect you with our insurance partner for quotes.
