Why should a shipper use an asset-based trucking company?

An asset-based trucking company can give shippers more direct operating accountability because the carrier manages its own fleet, drivers, dispatch, and transportation equipment. That direct control can make it easier to discuss equipment availability, pickup and delivery requirements, shipment status, recurring capacity needs, and operational changes with the company actually moving the freight. For shippers with regular lanes or specialized equipment requirements, an asset-based carrier can also provide clearer visibility into fleet capabilities and available transportation options.
