Many fleet owner and owner operators, especially when they’re just starting out, use brokers to connect with shippers and help facilitate the freight delivery process. Some trucking companies have budgets to hire dispatch services who help find loads and assist in backend operations, while others rely on load boards to find truck loads. The advantage of tools like DAT is that they allow drivers to search for loads no matter where they are, and vet the business partners they choose to work with by checking credit scores, days to pay, and reviews from other companies.
DAT is the best place to start. The search feature is simple and straightforward to use, allowing you to list specifics about your trucks and save frequent searches so they can be accessed quickly later. Inbound/outbound maps give visibility into where trucks are headed, while the Alarm Match feature sends you updates when the system detects new loads that match your search filters and preferred vendors.
