Truck Dispatch Service Pricing
4-7% of gross revenue depending on authority tenure and fleet size. Nothing else.
What Makes Pricing Dispatch Different
New authority: 7%
Carriers under 6 months operating authority pay the new-authority tier, reflecting the extra legwork required to place newer carriers with brokers.
Owner-operator: 5%
Established owner-operators (6+ months authority, single truck) pay the standard tier, the most common rate across our carrier base.
Small fleet: 4%
Fleets running 2+ trucks under one MC number qualify for our lowest tier, reflecting the efficiency of coordinated multi-truck dispatch.
Everything included
Load sourcing, rate negotiation, broker and shipper calls, rate confirmations, check calls, detention and lumper claim support, and weekly performance reporting are all included, with no add-on charges.
What stays separate
Fuel, tolls, maintenance, insurance, and factoring (if you choose to use it) remain the carrier's responsibility, same as running independently.
Pricing: Everything You Need to Know
Dispatch pricing should be simple enough to explain in one sentence: a percentage of gross revenue, tiered by authority age and fleet size, with nothing else added on. Here's the full breakdown.
Why Fee Tiers Are Based on Authority Age and Fleet Size
New authorities require more legwork to place with brokers who apply blanket restrictions to newer carriers, which is why that tier runs higher. Fleets benefit from coordinated dispatch efficiency across multiple trucks, which is why they receive the lowest rate.
What's Included in the Fee
The percentage fee covers the full service: sourcing freight, negotiating every rate, handling broker and shipper communication, managing rate confirmations and check calls, and supporting detention or lumper claims when they arise. There's no itemized add-on structure.
What's Not Included
Fuel, tolls, maintenance, insurance premiums, and optional factoring services remain the carrier's own responsibility and cost, exactly as they would running independently without dispatch.
Why Pricing Isn't Negotiated Case by Case
Standardizing tiers by authority age and fleet size keeps pricing transparent and fair across every carrier, rather than opening the door to inconsistent, relationship-based pricing that can feel arbitrary or unfair.
