Benefits for Carriers

Ratings and reviews can help motor carriers in a variety of ways. Learn more about how this information can be used to make more informed decisions when it comes to ensuring your shipments or hauls are not at risk of Fraud, theft & unscrupulous companies.

Good Ratings Can: 

Help build better relationships with your customers whether with brokers or direct shippers.

Help your customers stand out from their competitors in turn making them more successful business partners for your company to benefit from in the future.

Help show your company’s professionalism and dedication to not only your customers success but to the transparency of the transportation industry as a whole.

Provide other carriers insight about your good experiences with the companies you have worked with.  This goes back to helping not only your fellow man but also the companies you will want to work with in the future.

Help shippers and receivers in their vetting process when deciding what brokers they want to work with.  Good brokers should be celebrated and provided accolades so more shippers and receivers want to work with them.

Help create transparency for the transportation industry which is the ultimate goal for the Freight Checkers platform.

Bad Ratings Can:

Help provide your organization with a voice that can be heard industry wide.  When freight brokers and shippers / receivers realize the way their organization treats their partner carriers is going to follow them for years to come, their actions toward carriers should change. 

Help make other carriers aware of your experience with that company so those carriers can make more informed business decisions when deciding whether they want to haul a load for that company.

Help close the communication gap between carriers and the shippers / receivers who benefit from their services.  For example, many brokers tell carriers their customers don’t pay detention when actually the shipper or receiver does pay detention.  By carriers leaving ratings and reviews for shippers and receivers who supposedly do not pay detention, it allows those shippers and receivers an opportunity to correct the problem and to stop doing business with those unscrupulous brokers who are giving them a bad name in the industry.

Help shippers and receivers in their vetting process when deciding what brokers they want to work with.  Poorly rated brokers do not attract quality carriers and shippers and receivers know that.  It’s up to carriers to provide shippers and receivers with the information they need to work with the best freight brokers.

Help create transparency for the transportation industry which is the ultimate goal for the Freight Checkers platform.
