How direct-shipper prospecting works

A direct shipper hires a carrier itself instead of going through a broker or a load board. Finding one takes four steps.

1. Match the freight to your trailers

Reefer fleets look at food processors and cold storage. Flatbed fleets look at steel, lumber and building materials. Dry van fleets look at manufacturers and distribution centers.

2. List shippers near your yard and your lanes

A shipper close to where your trucks already run is easier to serve and can turn an empty leg into a loaded one.

3. Find who books the freight

It is usually someone in shipping, logistics, transportation or purchasing at the facility itself.

4. Get approved and follow up

Shippers usually ask for operating authority, a certificate of insurance and a W-9 before they tender a load. A follow-up date on every shipper keeps them from going cold.

A load board fills a truck today. A direct shipper can become repeat freight. Most carriers use both.
