How to Get Your MC# for Load Boards 

As an Independent Freight Dispatcher, you don't directly obtain MC numbers. Instead, you work with owner-operators who already have an MC number (issued by the FMCSA). Here's how it works:

1. Owner-Operators: They hold their own MC number, which allows them to legally transport freight across state lines.
2. Dispatcher’s Role: You help secure freight loads for these owner-operators. You act as an intermediary, managing scheduling, communication, and paperwork.
3. Dispatch Agreement: You establish a contract with the owner-operators, allowing you to dispatch freight for them under their MC number. You do not need your own MC number unless you plan to operate as a freight broker.

In summary, as a dispatcher, you use the MC number of the owner-operator you're working with to legally dispatch freight.
