Finding transporters

There are two ways to reach a carrier: post a load and let them come to you, or go looking first.

Let them come to you

Post a load on a corridor preset and every carrier with an open route on that lane gets a “A new load matches your route” notification. That’s the fastest route to a bid, and it costs you nothing but choosing a preset over a custom lane. See Posting a load.

Browsing carriers

Marketplace → the Carriers tab, or /marketplace directly. It’s public, so you can look before you sign up.

Search by company name, then use Filters for:

  • Company Type — Transporter, Logistics Provider, Freight Forwarder, Courier or Warehouse Operator.
  • Location — the city they’re based in.

Your filters end up in the URL, so a search you’ll repeat is worth bookmarking. Clear restores the full list.

Each card shows the company, a ✓ Verified badge where they’ve been verified, and their average rating. View Profile → opens their public page at /provider/{slug}.

Worth knowing before you rely on bids alone: on the load page, bidders are anonymous — every offer just says Carrier. Profiles, ratings and verification badges are visible here, in the directory, not there. See Reviewing bids and awarding.

Reading a carrier’s profile

The profile carries their fleet, their corridors, any warehousing they list, and their Reviews tab — real reviews from shippers who’ve used them, with per-dimension scores like Communication 4/5 and On time 5/5.

Reviews are double-blind and only publish once both parties have rated or 7 days have passed, so what you’re reading wasn’t written in retaliation for a score. See Ratings and reviews.

There’s an enquiry form on the profile if you want to talk before posting anything.

Searching for capacity

If you know your dates, search capacity directly rather than carriers: MarketplaceFind capacity (/marketplace/routes).

Filter by origin, destination, departure window, vehicle type and minimum capacity, and tick Verified only or Has return leg. Verified carriers rank first. A carrier with a return leg on your lane is usually your cheapest option — they’re selling kilometres they’d drive empty anyway.

What to look for

  • Verified, with a rating built on more than a couple of trips.
  • Vehicle match — they actually run the kind of truck your cargo needs.
  • Corridor overlap — a carrier who already runs your lane weekly beats one who’d be making a special trip.
  • Cross-border clearance, if your lane crosses a border. An uncleared carrier can’t take the work at all.
