What we do
Dispatch services for Tennessee carriers
Every service below is included for carriers running Tennessee — from searching the I-40 and I-65 corridors for freight through to getting your paperwork submitted after delivery.
Try it first
Your first Tennessee load is on us
We do not publish rates, because the honest answer depends on your equipment, your lanes and how you run. Instead we offer a free trial week: we find you a load running Tennessee, negotiate the rate, dispatch it and handle the broker. Continue only if the week justified itself.
For Tennessee specifically that means searching the I-40, I-65, I-24 corridors against your actual constraints — not the highest number on the board, but the load that pays best once deadhead, fuel and the reload are accounted for. Given that air freight and parcel and automotive make up much of what moves here, the brokers worth being set up with are not the same set as in a neighbouring state.
To start we need your active operating authority, a certificate of insurance and a signed W-9. Broker carrier packets can begin the same day — and the number of brokers you are set up with is effectively the size of the Tennessee market you can reach.
Questions
Dispatch in Tennessee — common questions
What kind of freight will you find for me in Tennessee?
Memphis is one of the largest air-cargo hubs in the world and Nashville has become a major distribution market in its own right — combined with six interstates, Tennessee offers exceptional load availability. In practice that means the loads we book most often in Tennessee involve air freight and parcel, automotive, consumer goods and appliances. We match those against your equipment and your preferred lanes rather than booking whatever is nearest.
Which equipment types work best in Tennessee?
Dry Van, Power Only, Flatbed and Reefer see the strongest structural demand in Tennessee, based on the state's dominant industries. That does not mean other equipment cannot run here — it means these are the types where load availability is most consistent, so you spend less time waiting.
Is freight in Tennessee seasonal?
Yes. Parcel volume through Memphis peaks from October through December. We plan around these patterns rather than reacting to them, which is the practical difference between being positioned ahead of a seasonal surge and chasing it after rates have already moved.
Which corridors do you run in Tennessee?
The main corridors through Tennessee are I-40, I-65, I-24, I-75, I-81 and I-55. Route planning matters here because the cheapest-looking load is often not the most profitable once deadhead to the pickup, tolls and fuel are accounted for — we run that arithmetic before recommending a load.
Do I have to be based in Tennessee to work with you?
No. We dispatch carriers running anywhere in the lower 48, and plenty of our carriers pass through Tennessee without being domiciled here. What matters is your equipment, your authority and the lanes you want to run — not your mailing address.
Are you a freight broker?
No. We are a dispatch service. We work for you, the carrier — we search loads, negotiate rates on your behalf and handle broker communication. Freight moves under your own MC authority, and you approve every load before it is booked.
