Frequently Asked questions
We at Driver’s Choice Dispatch are happy to answer your inquiries. It is a component of our devotion to honesty, openness, and providing exceptional customer service. Please get in touch with us, or check if we regularly receive questions like yours.
Put plainly, we buy you time so you can increase your income. The majority of owners and operators enter this industry with the intention of driving cargoes and making money, but they soon discover that all the paperwork, legal procedures, and agreements get in the way and prevent them from doing what really brings in money. Driver’s choice Dispatch makes it possible for your company to operate effectively and for you to take on more responsibilities by taking on all the business support tasks you would like to delegate. Furthermore, we strive to negotiate the best prices for your loads so you may keep more of your money in your pocket.
Interestingly, not at all. It takes time and money, if headhunters are required, to establish and implement a rigorous recruitment process if you want to find talented and competent candidates. Even if you are successful in finding what you are seeking for, you will probably still need to supply office space, which will cost extra money, and in certain situations, further training. However, employing Driver’s Choice Dispatch ends up being less expensive than even having one full-time dispatcher, as plenty of our clients have acknowledged. We are the best at what we do because of our networks, experience, and industry knowledge.
You can submit documentation to Driver’s Choice Dispatch online, making the registration process simple.
The first step is for you to sign our Dispatch Carrier Agreement, which outlines our obligations in detail. This is by no means a long-term service agreement; rather, it is intended to safeguard us both. We offer month-to-month services, and stopping them at any time won’t result in any fees.
– Insurance naming Driver’s Choice Dispatch as the certificate holder is also required. For shippers, dispatchers, and brokers, this is standard industry procedure; it merely enables us to act on your behalf and at your request when necessary. Verify that the insurance includes covering for cargo as well as liability.
For our records and the benefit of the shippers and brokers we deal with, we also require the Carrier Set-Up Package. Additionally, your signed W9 form and MC Permit should be here.
– A copy of each driver’s CDL is required for Dispatch as we maintain meticulous and accurate records and consistently adhere to all safety, regulatory, and industry regulations.
We collaborate with carriers who use company drivers as well as owners/operators operating under their own MC permissions.
We work with your insurance agent to obtain the insurance certificates with the certificate holder information, unless you have specifically authorized your insurance agency to process the certificate requests made by “the insured only”.
Indeed. We like supporting carriers and truck drivers at every step of their careers. We are looking for drivers who are focused and diligent. Realistically, most shippers and brokers prefer carriers with MC authorities more than six months to a year old, thus it could be more difficult for us to locate you the finest loads at first if you are a new carrier. But don’t worry, Driver’s Choice Dispatch will work hard to improve your earnings during your first year. It will be even simpler to get better rates and loads after you reach the one-year mark.
