Trucking: Hotshot, direct shippers, luck jim
QuestionHi Jim. I have my own company and I was doing local transport with a 1 ton truck. I also have my class a cdl and a 40' flatbed gooseneck trailer. Who would be a good freight broker to find hotshot loads within the southwest region? I can get my own authority, I just need a good place to find the loads. Everything I've found is for tractor trailer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Mike.
AnswerMike, I don't have any specific experience in this market, but I would try these to start:

The goos news it doesn't cost a whole lot to try out various boards and find the one that works best for you. Once you find a few good brokers or direct shippers through the boards you can deal with them directly. Best of luck.
