So as a broker, you'd contact the shipping lines or the container owners to do intermodal and drayage.

You can, but shipping lines are very large companies with long sales cycles. I’d start with Freight Forwarders.

take it a step further and become a freight agent, more money.
To find drayage customers are you guys contacting companies that import from overseas? Walmart, etc. Or the shipping companies themselves? Maersk, etc. Customs agents? Curious how to tap into this niche. Who's paying the bills for that shipment? I'd imagine cross docking / storage services would be a good business around the ports.

What tools do you use for rates of intermodal shipments? Also how do we get started?
@Freight360
2 жыл бұрын
We suggest contacting the carriers in the market you'll be working in, and ask for their tariff rates. Do this with a handful of carriers to determine the market. A rate won't do you much good without a carrier willing and able to move it for you.
Excellent information, I have my permits with the aiiu, but now I don't know how to find clients, can you help me?

So freight doesn't get posted on any loadboard for drayage?
@Freight360
10 ай бұрын
You’ll see it occasionally on DAT or other load boards. There’s also Drayage.com. There’s a lot there.
So a carrier has to be registered with each shipping company to pull their containers?
@Freight360
Жыл бұрын
You'll need to be tendered the loads by the company responsible for their delivery. If you're a carrier, you'll need to be registered with the UIIA.

@@sahirahross8290 you wouldn’t be sending a bill to a rail yard unless your customer is the rail road. There is a process called rail billing that doesn’t have anything to do with invoices. It refers to the process of getting the info to the rail road so they know where the container is going.
