Premium Truck Dispatching Services for Owner-Operators & Small Fleets — High-Paying Loads, No Contracts, 24/7 Support.
How We Dispatch Flatbeds Differently
We search DAT, Truckstop, and specialty boards simultaneously, plus tap direct broker relationships for loads that never hit the boards — because premium flatbed freight (steel, machinery, oversize) often goes straight to carriers with established relationships, not the open market. We price loads the way flatbeds actually earn: factoring in tarp pay ($75-$150 per tarp), detention pay ($25-$100/hr after free time), layover, and construction site surcharges, so a load isn't booked until every accessorial is confirmed in writing. We also line up your next load before the current one delivers, cutting the deadhead miles that eat into flatbed margins — every empty mile at $0.60-$0.80/mile in fuel cost is money you don't get back. And every load is matched to your securement capability and legal weight limits — tie-down count, tarp requirements, commodity type — so you never show up to a pickup with the wrong equipment or fail a roadside inspection over a securement violation.

FAQs
What makes flatbed dispatching different from dispatching a box truck or hotshot?
Flatbed freight is open-deck, which means tarping requirements, securement compliance, and seasonal demand swings (especially construction-driven freight slowing in winter) that box truck and hotshot carriers don't face the same way. We factor in tarp pay, detention, and site surcharges when negotiating your rate, so you're never stuck doing unpaid labor to secure a load.
How much does flatbed dispatching cost?
Our flatbed dispatch services run 7-10% per load, depending on your equipment, lanes, and freight type. There are no monthly fees, no long-term contracts, and no charges on loads you don't accept — you only pay when we book you a load.
Do you work with OTR flatbed operators, or only regional/local?
We onboard and dispatch OTR flatbed carriers alongside regional and local runs. Whether you're running long-haul steel and machinery lanes or staying closer to home with construction freight, we build a lane strategy around your equipment and preferences.
Do you negotiate tarp pay and handle securement requirements?
Yes. We negotiate tarp fees in writing on the rate confirmation before you accept any load, and confirm securement method, tie-down count, and site safety requirements upfront — so you're never caught off guard at pickup or hit with a roadside violation.
Do I need my own authority to use your flatbed dispatch services?
Yes, you'll need your own MC authority to work with us. We help new-authority and OTR carriers get set up with brokers, understand the onboarding process, and start booking loads quickly.
