Dispatching that doesn't shut you out for being new.

Pending MC? Just got your authority? Most dispatchers won't touch you — or they'll charge you 7%+ for the privilege. SSK Logistics takes new and pending-authority carriers at a flat 8%, negotiates harder on every load, and answers the phone in English or Spanish. Speed. Service. Knowledge.

Based in Miami, Florida. South Florida freight, port drayage, and bilingual dispatch from day one.

Why carriers stay with SSK

Rate negotiation

Higher rate-per-mile, negotiated by someone who knows what the load is worth

We don't just book the first load that pops up on the board. We negotiate. Every quote gets pushed — because we've hauled the same lanes and we know when a broker is lowballing you. A few cents per mile adds up fast across a week, and that difference more than covers the 8% fee.

Smarter routing

Fewer deadheads, tighter routing

A cheap load with 400 deadhead miles isn't cheap. We book with the next move in mind — backhauls, relay points, and lanes we know come back loaded out of South Florida. Less empty driving means more paid miles and less time sitting at truck stops waiting for something decent.

Domestic dispatcher

A domestic dispatcher who actually picks up the phone

When you call SSK, you're talking to someone in the United States who understands your load, your equipment, and your situation — not an overseas call center reading off a script. Try getting a nearshore dispatcher to understand port drayage paperwork at 9pm on a Friday. That's the difference.

South Florida freight

Port drayage access and South Florida freight, bilingual from the start

Miami puts us in the middle of one of the busiest freight markets in the Southeast. We work port drayage out of Miami and the surrounding terminals, and we negotiate in English and Spanish — which matters when your shipper, broker, or receiver prefers one over the other. Se habla español.

The wedge

Got your MC last week? Still waiting on it? You're in the right place.

Let's be honest about what happens out there. You finally get your authority — or you're weeks away from it — and you start calling dispatchers. Half of them won't take you until you've had your MC for 6 to 12 months. The ones that do? They hit you with a surcharge: 7%, sometimes more, because you're "new" and "risky."

That's the part that doesn't make sense to us. You passed the same requirements. You're running the same roads. The load doesn't care how old your authority is.

SSK Logistics accepts pending and new-MC carriers at the same flat 8% as everyone else. No new-carrier surcharge. No 90-day probation. No "come back when you have more history."

We can do this because we've been the new authority ourselves. We know the scramble. We also know that a carrier who just earned their MC is usually the most motivated, careful operator on the road — not a liability.

Our own USDOT/MC authority is currently pending — coming soon. We're building this company the same way you're building yours: the right way, from the ground up.

Three steps. No contracts. No catch.

1

Send us your load or your open days

Call, text, or email with your equipment type, your open dates, and where you're starting from. Pending MC? Just tell us where you are in the process — we'll work with it.

2

We negotiate and bring you booked loads

We pull from the boards, our broker relationships, and South Florida port drayage channels. Every quote gets pushed on rate. You see the offer, the miles, the deadhead, and the rate-per-mile before you say yes. You always have the final call.

3

You roll, we handle the paperwork

Once you accept, we send the rate confirmation, set up the load, and keep the broker off your back so you can drive. At delivery, we follow up on detention, layover, and anything else you're owed. Then we line up the next one.

8% flat. Stated plainly. No tiers, no surcharges, no fine print.

Most dispatchers won't tell you their fee on the website. Here's ours: 8% flat on booked loads. Same rate whether you've had your MC for ten years or ten days. No new-carrier premium, no per-load minimum, no monthly retainer, no hidden dispatch fees stacked on top.

We charge 8% because we earn it. That's the top of the standard market band, and we're not going to pretend it's a bargain — it's a premium. Here's what you get for it:

  • ✓Rate negotiation on every load, not just the easy ones
  • ✓Fewer deadhead miles through lane planning and backhaul pairing
  • ✓A domestic dispatcher who answers the phone in English or Spanish
  • ✓Port drayage and South Florida freight access from our Miami base
  • ✓No contracts — if we're not making you more money, you walk

The math is simple. If 8% costs you more than you're saving on rate negotiation, deadhead reduction, and time spent hunting loads, we haven't done our job. Run the calculator and see for yourself.

Questions we hear from new and pending-MC carriers

Why 8%? Other dispatchers quote 5%.

Because 5% dispatchers book the first load on the board and move on. We negotiate rate, plan the next move to cut deadhead, and answer the phone when something goes wrong at 9pm. The 2-3% difference is supposed to come back to you in higher rate-per-mile and fewer empty miles. If it doesn't, we're the wrong fit and you should keep your 5% guy. Run the calculator — it's built to show you the break-even.

Do you take carriers with a pending or brand-new MC?

Yes. Pending authority, just-issued authority, doesn't matter — same flat 8%, no surcharge, no waiting period. We'll talk through where you are in the process and get you loaded as soon as you're able to roll. We do not work with carriers operating without insurance or without their authority in process.

What equipment types do you dispatch?

Dry Van, Reefer, Flatbed, and Hotshot. If you run something else, call us — we'll tell you straight whether we can place you well or whether you'd be better served by a specialized dispatcher.

Do I have to sign a contract?

No. SSK works load-by-load. No long-term contract, no exclusivity requirement, no cancellation fee. If you want to use us for one load and someone else for the next, that's your call. We keep carriers by making them more money, not by locking them in.

How fast can you book a load?

In most cases, same day — especially out of South Florida where we have strong broker relationships and port drayage volume. For specialized freight or specific lanes, we'll tell you up front what the realistic timeline is. We don't promise what we can't deliver.
