How flat 5% lands on a Salt Lake City–Boise load
A 350-mile dry-van load through a traditional broker — say, $1,100 all-in — typically loses $198 to the broker's spread (industry-average 18%, per FreightWaves). The carrier sees only $902, the shipper paid the full $1,100, and the difference funds a call-center.
On GetHaulDirect, the same load posts at $1,100 — and the carrier sees $1,045 (you keep the broker spread, the platform fee is $55 flat). Across a year of Salt Lake City–Boise volume, the gap is real money. See your annual savings →
Carriers running this lane are FMCSA-verified (active operating authority) before they are offered a load, and each is asked for a certificate of insurance and an ID + selfie check. The matching engine looks for carriers whose equipment fits and whose home base is within reach of Salt Lake City, prefers ones with payouts connected and recent activity, then offers the load to the best-fitting carriers at once with 30 minutes to accept — no auction, no double-brokering.
