Steer Clear: The Risks of Double Brokering
Double brokering — the practice of a broker re-brokering freight to another broker —can be illegal, but that doesn’t stop companies from doing it. In fact, double brokering might even be on the rise.
A lack of regulatory oversight and continued supply chain disruption from the pandemic have made conditions ripe for fraudulent brokers to offer deceptively low rates on load boards, only to double broker the load and end up not paying the actual carrier.
Unlike other load boards, the Sylectus load board is an alliance of vetted carriers and offers more than 26,000 vehicles for your freight. If you’re in need of capacity, use our network to find the best option for expedited, partial load, dry van, refrigerated, and flatbed freight.
Tesla EV Charging Port Could Be Adopted by Stellantis Next
With Ford and GM already making the move over to the Tesla's North American Charging Standard NACS standard, it makes sense for Stellantis to follow suit. That's particularly true as the brand is gearing up to release a suite of all-electric vehicles under its Jeep, Dodge, Ram, and Maserati brands.
“At this time, we continue to evaluate the NACS standard and look forward to discussing more in the future,” Stellantis said in a statement to Reuters. "Our focus is to provide the customer the best charging experience possible. Our Free2Move Charge brand will offer seamless, simple solutions whether at home or on-the-go through partnerships with charging providers.”
