How flat 5% lands on a TampaOrlando load

A 85-mile dry-van load through a traditional broker — say, $500 all-in — typically loses $90 to the broker's spread (industry-average 18%, per FreightWaves). The carrier sees only $410, the shipper paid the full $500, and the difference funds a call-center.

On GetHaulDirect, the same load posts at $500 — and the carrier sees $475 (you keep the broker spread, the platform fee is $25 flat). Across a year of TampaOrlando volume, the gap is real money. See your annual savings →

Carriers running this lane are FMCSA-verified (active authority + insurance on file) and identity-cleared through Sumsub before they can accept a load. The matching engine routes loads to whoever fits the Tampa pickup window first — no auction, no double-brokering.
