The short answer
Small fleet dispatch means one dispatcher plans loads for all of a carrier's trucks, usually 2 to 10, so trucks don't sit or chase the same lanes. Prime Trucks Dispatch handles load booking, rate negotiation, broker setup and paperwork for small fleets at 4.9% per booked load.
One dispatcher for every truck
Small fleets lose money when trucks sit, when two trucks chase the same lane, or when a driver's home time gets forgotten. We keep one plan for the whole fleet:
- Every truck's location, equipment and next available time
- Each driver's hours, preferences and home time
- Lanes split so your trucks don't compete with each other
- Broker setups done once, used by every truck
- Paperwork for every load sent to your factoring company
You see everything
Loads are sent to you or the driver you choose for approval, with the rate and miles. You decide who approves loads: you, each driver, or both.
Growing the fleet
When you add a truck, we add it to the plan the same day. When a driver is new, we start them on lanes they know. The fee doesn't change: 4.9% of the gross on each load we book.
Fleet dispatch service for small trucking companies
Most dispatch for small trucking companies breaks down when the owner is also the dispatcher, the safety manager and sometimes a driver. Our fleet dispatch service gives you a trucking fleet dispatcher who knows every unit, so nothing depends on you being by the phone.
