THE AUTO SHIPPING BROKER..BROKERS INFORMATION


What are they looking for?  We’ve been noticing that numerous auto shipping brokers (aka auto transport brokers) have been attempting to join a select group for professional staff from auto transport carriers that we watch over. While we appreciate, enjoy and see the significance auto shipping brokers bring to people needing assistance with their auto shipping requirements and needs that particular group is not intended for the brokers. There is better ways for auto transport brokers to connect and receive carrier rates from the carriers, after all is not that what they’re looking for?

Stay and follow along, you’ll see it’s good for you.

CarrierRates technology is focused on facilitating the auto shipping process online for auto transport carriers, independent car dealers, single rooftop franchised car dealerships, small and large auto groups. Applying internet technology to auto shipping improves the process and also reduces cost and transit times.

What we're saying when we use the phrase “facilitating the auto shipping process” is we make it very damn quick and easy for the dealers to “post” their vehicle shipping requirements and needs (2 minutes) to literally hundreds of carriers in exchange for carrier rates directly back from the carriers that also include estimated pickup and delivery dates and are commonly referred to as their "bid". Hence dealers post, carriers bid.

Now then for you, (the auto shipping broker) here’s the best way for you to connect with them (the auto transport carriers). It’s good and easy for you too. The best way is through CarrierRates. It’s good for you because CarrierRates is a neutral platform (not a carrier..not a broker). Remember earlier we mentioned we appreciate auto shipping brokers and we do because we chose not to engage working with the general public and appreciate the professional skill set required of quality and reputable auto shipping brokers, making this possible and good for both of us too.

We also feel it is best for the general public too, to arrange auto shipping with a quality and reputable auto shipping broker, as the general public who need auto shipping services predominantly have busy schedules compounded with limited knowledge of the complexities involved with this narrow industry. And for this is why we understand the significance of you the auto shipping brokers. Thank you.

To find out just how easy it is to get started call 206 388-3778 today!

Auto Transport Supply, Demand and You

A decade ago OEMs’ where concerned on how auto transport trailer manufactures could keep up with demand. Today the automotive industry is concerned about the lack of car hauler drivers, as many of them have left the auto transport industry during the downturn.

With so many changes over the past decade, we need to collectively balance things out. Collectively together we can improve this poor utilization of man and machine, resulting in so many positive ways for all parties involved. And is exactly what CarrierRates main mission is to do, bring people together and help them achieve their goals.

For example at a car dealership, a car sales consultants may not know how auto shipping effects them professionally and personally. …Until s/he needs to have a sold vehicle shipped, a long distance to the car lot quickly, for delivery to customer resulting in commissions paid on their next check.

Shouldn’t you be thinking collectively …with CarrierRates

CARS and Auto Transport Carriers.

Did the Car Allowance Rebate System (CARS) have an impact on the auto transport industry?

There seems to be a shortage of available auto transport carriers this week, based on what dates are being received by car dealers posting vehicle shipments on CarrierRates.com. Some auto transport carries are reporting to CarreirRates.com they have no equipment available while other ones that are bidding are posting pickup dates of 10 days out.

If you are an auto transport carriers, please let us know if CARS has helped your business.
