What dispatch actually costs you.
We tell carriers we show our work, so hiding the fee behind a phone call would be a strange way to start. Here is how the number is built and what moves it.
A percentage of the gross linehaul on loads we book for you. Nothing else. If the truck does not move, there is nothing to pay.
Finding, negotiating, booking
Sourcing across multiple load boards, rate negotiation, and the back-and-forth that goes with it.
All the paperwork
Broker setups, carrier packets, rate confirmations, invoicing support.
24/7 support
Nights, weekends and breakdowns, at no extra charge.
Your weekly recap
Miles, RPM and deadhead, every Friday.

Why we quote you rather than publish one rate
Two carriers with the same truck can sit at different ends of the band. These are the things that decide it.
More trucks
A fleet takes less coordination per truck than a single unit, and the rate reflects that.
Consistent, predictable lanes
A truck that runs a known box is faster to plan than one that goes anywhere.
Specialized equipment
Stepdeck and oversize carry permits, escorts and route work. That is real hours per load.
Heavy accessorial chasing
Detention, layover and tarp pay are worth pursuing, and pursuing them takes time.
What you will not find on your invoice
Setup fees
Monthly minimums
Charges on loads you found
Cancellation penalties
Your dispatch agreement sets out the fee, the billing schedule and the notice period in writing before you start. Nothing on this page overrides that document.
Do the math yourself
Whether it is worth it is arithmetic, not opinion
Put a real load into the profit calculator with the dispatch fee included and see what it leaves you. That is the honest way to answer this.

Tell us your equipment and how many trucks you run, and you get the actual figure, not a range.
