Pitch/info to carriers (organize and focus better)
You may have heard about or even used “dispatchers” from the many dispatching service companies out there. They can be a useful/beneficial to certain trucking companies/ carriers that don’t want or need the full trucking company building that Trucker Country Logistics provides. (For more information, check out the chart below for a comparison of what we provide versus what dispatching services provide (or DON’T provide).
Working directly with shippers and brokers helps us to get loads before they even hit the load boards. This could mean finding consistent (possibly even dedicated) freight to develop your lanes
“Your goal is to build your entire carrier fleet around just a few shippers!”
Why? It’s the easiest way to develop lanes, get to know shipper, etc.
Run how YOU want to run..
Getting home is your priority.
Every few days? Weekly?
Running over the road, variety, changing conditions, and money.
Want the best of both worlds?
When we first start working with you…
Rates will usually be lower
Lanes could be erratic or non existent
But later…
Consistent or dedicated lanes
Better freight rates
Don’t trust random dispatching services who are not legal or qualified to create lanes or find loads for you. You don’t want just another hand in your pocket or someone who doesn’t have your best interest at heart!
We help build trucking companies. Period.
Why would you want to work with us?

Ideas
