Top 5 Car Hauling Load Boards: Central Dispatch Ready Cars UR Metro +1

Welcome to Auto Transport Intel. This is "Top 5 Car Hauling Load Boards" in Auto Transport today - for Searching for Cars to Book For Transport for your auto transport business. #top5 #carhauling #loadboards

Load Board #1) Central Dispatch
Visit centraldispatch.com
Right now, this is absolutely the #1 auto transport load board in the United States, with the most listed loads nationwide - easily averaging over 40,000 posted loads at any one time. That's a lot of cars!

However, to be a subscriber as a carrier, you're looking at spending over $115 a month for a subscription and an annual price tag closer to $1,500 per year. But, Central Dispatch does offer a 30-day free trial and a typical set up only takes 7-10 days. The "Search Vehicles" feature is easy to use and if you're a new Auto Transport business, you need to sign up with Central Dispatch until you can find your own customers. Unfortunately, Central Dispatch is the only load board of the top 5 where you cannot book loads online with the click of a button and that can cost you time. Plus, it's the only major load board where the dispatch sheet cannot be directly assigned to a driver's mobile app. However, no other car hauler load board comes even close to Central Dispatch in terms of volume of cars listed for transport. And that's exactly why you'll find other load boards eventually list most of their loads on Central Dispatch.

Load Board #2) Ready Logistics / Ready Auto Transport / 1Dispatch
Visit ratloads.com
Yes, on 1Dispatch you can book loads online without contacting anyone. This load board is free and you get paid fast by comchecks. On top of that, Ready Logistics has one of the best vehicle inspection mobile apps available - which is connected directly to your dispatch dashboard so there's no duplication of information or lack of efficiency within dispatching. Of course, every new car hauling business should start getting signed up with 1Dispatch right away. Like right now.

Load Board #3) CarsArrive Network
Visit carsarrive.com
In terms of use, it's very similar to 1Dispatch. Book online, bid to get more money, it's a free load board, but the default pay is net 20. But it's a better selection of used cars at better pickup locations, mostly auto auctions, and the listed rates are better than average. The biggest problem is getting signed up with CarsArrive. Yes, they require a minimum of 90 days of active MC authority, but it's their cargo insurance minimum requirements that keep many transporters from ever signing up. And as a dispatcher, I love having CarsArrive Network as a booking option. I use it all the time because it really helps with overall gross revenue.

Load Board #4. United Road Logistics.
Visit urautoloads.com
You would not know from the look of their simplistic online load board that United Road is not only the nation's largest broker carrier but (among other big contracts) is also in charge of moving the bulk of carmax cars. That equals a lot of volume and regular work for a new car hauling business - and that's why United Road has a lot of agents you can call and daily email lists of available loads. Unfortunately, many carriers often rely on Central Dispatch to see the loads they eventually book on URautoloads. It's a good thing this load board is free, because it needs work, and make sure you understand all the United Road insurance requirements and commitments before you sign up.

Load Board #5. MetroGistics.
Visit metroloads.com
Make no mistake, MetroGistics is a growing company and is surely here to stay, but you will regularly come across loads that you wished paid better and were better described in the original listing - and I'm talking about "Mix Mix". What is that? Like many other load boards, if you see it on Central, check metroloads.com to make sure it's really still available. Again, it's free to sign up but make sure you have your ducks in a row by checking your company name using the fmcsa safersys website so you don't waste a bunch of time. Also, be ready for lots of incoming phone calls seeking daily status updates and perfect performance on your end of the deal. Go get signed up because you will see their loads.

Guess what? I'm throwing in a bonus #6.

Load Board #6 Ship.Cars
Visit ship.cars - not .com

For years, the top 5 auto transport load boards I just mentioned have enjoyed a real lack of competition. But that's about to change. Ship.Cars is one of many recent and upcoming load board contenders boasting innovative technology and a large enough volume of listed loads to make carriers and new auto transport businesses pay attention and sign up.

I hope this "top 5 car hauling load boards" video helps you stay loaded and remain profitable. As carriers and dispatchers, we're all looking for something better and new ways to keep up gross revenue. So stay tuned to Auto Transport Intel for new information and thanks for watching.
