Example

Load from Los Angeles to Denver.
For our example the distance is 1000 Miles to deliver.
Many companies out there will bid this load at $2.20 a mile.
Elimination of the middleman allows the load to be pulled for $2.00 a mile.

CategoryTypical ServicesHighway Direct
Distance1000 Miles1000 Miles
Cost$2.20/Mile$2.00/Mile
Total:$2,200$2,000

The above example shows a $200 per load savings. If your company ships just 5 loads a week, that adds up to more than $50,000 annually.

In addition the driver makes more too, and in turn, is happier to take care of your goods! Let's look at that portion of the transaction.

CategoryDriver Pay with a Traditional BrokerDriver Pay with Highway Direct

Cost$2.20/Mile$2.00/Mile
Commission %20%2%
Commission Cost$440$40
Total Pay:$1,760$1,960

The benefit to the driver is $200 per load. At ten loads that adds up to $2,000. Every driver who addends this to their schedule will see a $24,000 annual increase.
