How do Freight Agents Find and Work with Carriers?

Mostly, freight agents find reliable carriers by posting on load boards. A load board is a platform where agents post details after a customer's freight for a carrier to reach out. It is essential that an agent only works with qualified, reputable, and reliable carriers who can guarantee to ship and deliver freight to its final destination without delay.
