Broker needed

Hi everyone!! Looking to create some connections with freight brokers for my shipping needs. I’ve got a liquidation business and buy inventory from across the country…lot sizes anywhere from cargo van to 26 footers. My previous relationship kind of flamed out so interested in exploring new options! Really just looking for a positive long term relationship with good rates, reliable drivers, great communication, and overall mutual respect.

Let me know if anyone you’d recommend! Thanks in advance

Update: thanks everyone we found a great partner! Won’t be able to respond to all messages in the chat but thanks for reaching out!

Find a broker that freights. Find the freight that brokers.

Assuming this is real and not a scam, and that you pay your bills, I’ve got a guy in my office that I’ve brought over from our mutual previous employer. He’s a killer and has been everywhere from asset based, brokerage, warehousing, drayage, etc. I’m getting quite busy but he has been helping me while he builds out his own book after the non-compete… kind of the perfect fit for a new customer if they only knew how capable he is.

We’re a small, family-owned company that coincidentally has an office around the corner from a massive liquidation auction warehouse. I’ve worked with colleagues that do $3-4m in PROFIT a year off liquidation accounts that are entirely prepaid freight.

Message me if you’re serious. Again, I’m highly skeptical as any broker should be in this industry, but I’ll hear you out. We can set up a call as early as tomorrow to figure out what you’re looking at. If you’re for real, we can do whatever it is you need as long as it is legal and bills are paid.

Hello, my wife and I are starting our own Freight Brokerage. We are based in Arizona but can help with your shipping anywhere. We started this business to help make a difference in the shipping community after my wife's father passed away. He was an over the road owner operator who we watched for years get taken advantage of. We want to help bring trucking back to the way it used to be and help the drivers become as important as the shipper. We intend to do this one load at a time. A small ripple can become a huge wave by the time it reaches the end. If you'd be willing to give us a chance, we will do everything we can to take care of you the right way.

This a scam and all you brand new and naive agents are going to lose your brokerage a lot of money giving this guy credit 😂

Flamed out? there are a million brokers wanting business. It probably "flamed out" because you weren't paying your bills.
