Dry vans are fully enclosed trailers ideal for transporting general freight. They protect cargo from weather and theft, making them perfect for boxed and palletized goods.
Reefer trailers are refrigerated units designed to transport temperature-sensitive freight. Ideal for food, pharmaceuticals, and perishable goods, they maintain controlled temperatures throughout the haul.
Flatbed and step deck trailers are ideal for hauling oversized or heavy loads like machinery, lumber, and construction materials. Step decks offer lower deck heights to accommodate taller cargo, while both require proper securement and may need tarping depending on the freight.
Freight dispatchers must follow legal and ethical guidelines, including proper carrier–broker relationships, honest rate negotiations, and FMCSA compliance. Upholding transparency, avoiding double brokering, and respecting carrier autonomy are key to maintaining a trustworthy and legal dispatch operation.
Freight dispatchers manage IFTA reporting, permits, safety regulations, and compliance to keep trucks on the road legally. They ensure drivers meet all requirements, file necessary paperwork, and maintain up-to-date licenses to avoid fines and delays.
