Hello Team,

We mainly do dry van and flatbed, however our customer has given us a large account to also handle their drayage shipments in Seattle/Tacoma ports.

When looking for a drayage carriers what are the things you guys look for? We have not done any drayage brokering before and are a family run company so any advice would be helpful.

We have mainly worked with owner operators directly before but for drayage and the volume is going to be 1200-1500 container per month it doesn’t make sense to work with owner operators so we are thinking the best approach would be 4-5 companies. But there are so many companies listed for drayage how do get through them without having to work with each one.

Any advice would be appreciated
