Flatbed Dispatch Services

🔍 Flatbed Dispatch

Why Choose Freight Girlz for Flatbed Truck Dispatch Services?

Open-deck is not “just another trailer.” A good flatbed week comes from solid load notes, correct securement expectations, clean appointments, and accessorials confirmed in writing. We dispatch flatbed like a system: rate floors, deadhead limits, and reload planning built around your equipment and skill set.

Securement-aware booking — tarp/chain counts, coil rules, lumber bundles, edge protection, and jobsite notes confirmed.
Carrier-minded dispatch — we run trucks too, so we dispatch like an operator (not a call center).
Clear communication — appointment windows, gate hours, and load notes confirmed before you roll.
Paperwork handled — packets, RCs, BOL/POD, lumper receipts, and factor-ready docs to avoid pay delays.
Your rules, your lanes — you approve every load. No forced dispatch.
Transparent pricing — straightforward dispatch fees with zero surprise skims.
Flatbed tip that saves claims
Most problems start with unclear load notes. We confirm securement expectations and commodity rules before you commit so you don’t arrive short on tarps/coil racks/chains — or get stuck with an unpaid cancellation.
⚙️ Process

How Our Flatbed Dispatch Service Works

Quick setup: You share lanes, home time, trailer length, tarp/securement gear, deadhead limits, and minimum all-in rate/RPM targets.

Load sourcing: We source flatbed freight that matches your equipment and preferences (tarp / no-tarp, coils, lumber, steel, machinery).

Rate negotiation: We push your floors and confirm accessorials (detention, TONU, layover, tarp pay) in writing.

Paperwork + broker setup: Carrier packet, COI requests, RCs, special instructions, and BOL/POD collection — prepared for factoring.

Dispatch + reload plan: We line up the next move early to reduce downtime and keep weekly revenue consistent.
