Rate Negotiation

Rate negotiation handshake over a deal

Every mile should pay what it is worth

Brokers expect negotiation. Our dispatchers know what your lanes are paying and push back on lowball offers, factoring in deadhead, fuel, tolls, weight and the market you will be sitting in after delivery. The goal isn’t just a bigger number on one load, it’s a stronger week. We look at the whole trip, including the reload, so your revenue per mile stays healthy from Monday to Friday.

KNOW THE MARKET


Before we call, we check the lane: recent rates, how many loads are moving and how easy it will be to reload from the destination. That tells us where to start the conversation.

NEGOTIATE EVERY LOAD


We counter lowball offers and ask for detention, layover and TONU terms up front, so accessorials are agreed before you accept the load.

CONFIRM IT IN WRITING


We review the rate confirmation line by line, rate, pickup and delivery times, addresses, weight and special instructions, so there are no surprises at the dock or on payday.
