Heavy haul/RGN/OS/OW

Anyone here got experience brokering heavy haul / RGN, oversized, or overweight loads?

What load board works best for specialized equipment like that–if there even is one that’s actually reliable?

And if there isn’t, what’s the best way you guys source carriers for this kind of freight efficiently?

THE CREDIT DEMON

I started my own brokerage after gaining experience as an agent, but I didn’t expect the credit side of the business to be this challenging. I landed a pretty large customer, but I’m unable to move the freight because carriers won’t work with a new brokerage that has no credit history.

I’ve done some research and understand that carrier payment history needs to be reported to credit companies to build credit, but the issue is getting carriers to haul for me in the first place. Is there any way to build brokerage credit quickly or work around this when starting out?

Auto Transport brokers

I’m getting into auto transport as a freight broker and had a few questions about how payments typically work in this niche.

Do auto carriers use factoring the same way OTR carriers do, or do they usually work on credit/direct pay?

Also, when dealing with individual customers shipping personal vehicles, what are the standard payment terms? Is payment usually collected upfront before pickup, or after delivery like in OTR freight?

And lastly, is Central Dispatch the main load board for finding auto carriers, or are there other reliable platforms commonly used in the industry?
