Northbound Logistics books high-paying dry van, reefer, flatbed and step deck freight for owner-operators and small fleets — negotiating every rate, filing every document, and keeping your wheels turning north.
Most owner-operators lose four to six hours a day to load hunting, phone tag and paperwork. We take all of it — so the only thing left on your plate is driving.
We work every major board plus our own broker relationships to find loads that fit your equipment, your home time and your lane preferences.
Every load gets negotiated. We know what lanes are paying this week and we do not book cheap freight to hit a quota.
Carrier packets, rate confirmations, BOLs and broker setups handled end to end, so nothing stalls your payment.
We work directly with your factoring company — or help you pick one — so invoices go out same-day and cash lands faster.
One named dispatcher who knows your truck, your preferences and your name — not a rotating call center queue.
Late broker, damaged freight, missing lumper receipt — we chase it down so you are not making calls from the sleeper at midnight.
No lengthy setup, no onboarding fee, and no contract holding you hostage. Most carriers send their documents in the morning and are booked on their first Northbound load the next day.
MC authority, W-9, certificate of insurance and a signed dispatch agreement. That is the whole list.
Lanes you want, states you avoid, home time, minimum rate per mile. We build your profile around it.
Every load is sent to you before it is booked. Nothing gets committed without your yes — ever.
We handle the paperwork, submit to your factor same-day, and start planning your next load while you drive.
We started Northbound because too many dispatch services treat carriers like inventory. Here is what we do differently.
You see every load before it is booked and you can turn any of them down. We are not going to strong-arm you onto cheap freight to protect our percentage — if the rate is not right, we keep looking.
Week to week, cancel any time with no exit fee and no notice period. We would rather earn your business every Friday than trap you in a twelve-month agreement.
Our fee comes out of the load rate we negotiate — nothing up front, no monthly minimum, no setup charge. If we do not book you, we do not get paid.
We check credit scores and payment history before committing your truck. Chasing a broker who does not pay is the most expensive load you will ever run.
Four trailer types, dispatched daily across the lower 48 by dispatchers who specialize in each one.
Our highest-volume category. Consistent freight, dependable lanes and strong backhaul options through the Midwest, Southeast and Texas triangle.
Produce, protein and pharma. Higher rates and tighter appointment windows — we plan reefer runs with the schedule built in, not bolted on.
Steel, lumber, building materials and machinery. We account for tarping, securement time and permit needs when we negotiate the rate.
Oversize and over-height freight with the permitting handled for you. Specialized lanes that most dispatch services will not touch.
Send your MC authority and insurance today, and we will have your first load on the table tomorrow.
