Where Do Shippers Post Their Loads?

Shippers can post the loads they need delivered on digital bulletin boards, where they are visible to carriers and freight brokers. Drivers can also post their trucks on DAT's load boards, and when the system detects a match, it will notify you so you can get the wheels turning ASAP.

How do brokers find shippers?

As a freight broker, you can find shippers by doing research on the products you see every day to find out where they are manufactured and how they are transported.

How do shippers use load boards?

A load board is an online marketplace or matching system that allows shippers and freight brokers to find carriers for their loads, while enabling carriers to maximize their earnings to find loads that keep their trucks full.
