The Ultimate Flatbed Truck Dispatch Service
The Ultimate Flatbed Truck Dispatch Service
For Owner-Operators
Maximize your flatbed revenue with premium freight. From steel coils and lumber to oversized machinery, our expert dispatchers secure the highest-paying loads, negotiate top rates, and handle your permits and route planning 24/7.
Experts in Heavy Haul. We Are Flatbed Specialists.
Flatbed freight isn't for rookies. Tarps, straps, coils, and permits require a dispatch team that understands the complexities of open-deck transportation. We make sure you get paid for the extra work.
Oversize & Permits
Hauling wide or over-dimensional loads? We handle the tedious paperwork. Our team assists with oversize permits, routing requirements, and coordinating pilot cars.
Step Deck & Conestoga
We don't just book standard 48' or 53' flatbeds. If you operate a Step Deck (Drop Deck), Double Drop, or a Conestoga trailer, we match you with specialized freight that fits.
Aggressive Rate Negotiation
Flatbed capacity is valuable. Our dedicated dispatchers negotiate aggressively on lane rates, detention time, and layovers so you never leave money on the table.
Intelligent Routing
Open-deck freight requires smart routing. We plan your trips to avoid hazardous weather zones, low bridges, and extreme scales, minimizing your deadhead miles.
Invoicing & Factoring
Once the load is delivered and strapped down, we handle the administrative headache. We submit BOLs and Rate Cons to your factoring company for fast 24-hour payouts.
