Frequently Asked Questions About Freight Brokers in Indiana

How do I verify a freight broker in Indiana?

Match the broker's legal identity and MC number to current FMCSA Licensing and Insurance records. Confirm active broker-of-property authority, insurance or bond status, and shipment-specific availability before selection.

What is the difference between a freight broker and a carrier?

A freight broker arranges transportation with authorized carriers; a motor carrier performs the transportation. Some companies hold both authorities, so verify which entity and authority apply to the shipment.

What should I compare in freight-broker quotes?

Give each broker the same origin, destination, dates, commodity, dimensions, weight, equipment, appointment, and accessorial requirements. Compare the complete charge, carrier assignment, service commitment, tracking, exceptions, insurance, and claims terms.
