What does a Freight Broker Do?
So what exactly does a freight broker do? A freight broker
is an individual or a company that brings together a shipper, who has goods to transport, with an authorized motor carrier that wants to provide that service. A freight broker falls into the category of a transportation intermediary, a company that is neither a shipper nor an asset-owning carrier, but that plays an integral role in the movement of cargo.
Freight Broker Agent
This course empowers learners with the knowledge needed to become a successful broker agent. In this course, you will learn how to build a carrier and shipper database, to book loads,
to navigate through any logistic loader boards and through
the Federal Motor Carriers Safety Administration’s (FMCSA) regulations and restrictions. Customer service/phone etiquette, terminology of the logistics industry and the techniques used to coordinate loads for shippers and carriers will also be reviewed.
