Broker vs Dispatcher & More | Final Mile 103

Nate Cross & Ben Kowalski answer your freight brokering questions and discuss:

– Broker vs Dispatcher: We break down the differences between a freight broker and a dispatcher, and whether one person can legally and effectively perform both roles.

– Fraudulent Carrier Scenario: A listener shares a case where a broker paid a fraudulent carrier and now refuses to pay the real trucking companies who actually moved the freight. We discuss legal and ethical options to resolve the situation.

– Insurance for 1099 Agents: Should a 1099 freight agent carry insurance?
