Once you find a load that interests you, contact the phone number listed and speak directly to
the broker or shipper who posted the load. Ask them how much the load pays and when they
expect to pay you.
Be prepared to answer questions such as:
o What is your USDOT/MC number? You will need a satisfactory DOT safety rating and MC
authority.
o Do you have valid insurance? Usually, you will need to supply insurance certificates
showing cargo liability of $100,000 and liability of $1,000,000.
Next, agree on the terms, and then go pick up and haul the load. If you can’t wait 3-4 weeks, get
