Hi all,

I am new in the industry and would really appreciate if I can get answers or feedback to following questions please:

  • How do LTL brokers find appropriate carriers, is it only through LoadLink?
  • What is expected time period for delivery? I understand LTL carrier would consolidate skids to make FTL, so how long would you agree timelines?
  • If a skid is temp controlled, how difficult is it to find carriers which will take care of temp requirements and guarantee that temp will be maintained while they are consolidating?
  • (Naive question) Is there more demand for LTL or FTL?
Thanks
