The DAT load board analyzes certified freight brokers to match carriers and shippers with the most suitable partners in the business.
Connecting carriers and shippers to loads is a critical part of the freight journey. The best brokers facilitate smooth load matching. DAT’s load board provides the largest selection of loads in the country so you can stay on top of loads near and far — keeping you ahead of the competition.
A freight broker serves as the middle-man between shippers and carriers. Brokers for freight help steer the shipping and carrying process, but they do not assume possession of the freight. Instead, a broker expedites communication between the shipper and the carrier.
In other words, the broker plays the matchmaker role, enabling carriers to find the right loads. When a carrier seeks their next load, brokers connect with shippers that have freight ready to be delivered. Brokers can boost your bottom line by tightening operations and reducing the time spent searching for your loads.
Shippers review lists of freight brokers to find a partner who will help them connect with truckers that can haul their loads near and far, while carriers use these lists to find a broker who will connect them with shippers.
Shippers and carriers can input their specific criteria into DAT’s load board to evaluate a large list of brokers. The DAT Directory lists each broker’s bond and credit history, longevity within the industry, and average days to pay, while the user reviews validates a broker’s reliability.
To identify the best freight brokers to work with, shippers and carriers must gain access to a detailed list of freight brokers. That’s where DAT comes into play.
A subscription to the DAT load board provides shippers and carriers alike with the full range of tools needed to take their business to the next level — including a full list of vetted and reliable freight brokers.
