Every Hour You Spend Finding Loads Is an Hour You're Not Getting Paid.

Self-dispatching feels like control. But the numbers tell a different story.

Time You Don't Have

The average self-dispatching owner-operator spends 3–4 hours a day on load boards, calling brokers, and doing paperwork. That's 25+ hours a week not driving — not earning.

💰

Rates Left on the Table

Brokers know most owner-operators will accept the first offer. Our dispatchers push back on every load — we've tracked $0.10–$0.25/mile improvements on loads that carriers booked themselves.

📄

Paperwork That Never Ends

Rate confirmations, BOLs, invoicing, IFTA prep, carrier packets — it's a second job. One slip on a rate confirmation can cost you thousands. We handle it all.

We Hunt Down the Best Loads

Your dedicated dispatcher searches DAT, Truckstop, 50+ additional boards, and calls direct broker contacts. We target the loads that match your equipment and routes — and we don't stop until we find something worth presenting.

03
💪

We Fight for Every Dollar

When we find a load, we don't accept the posted rate. We negotiate — hard. Our dispatchers know market rates by lane, day of week, and season. We get you the most the broker will pay.

04
🚛

You Drive. We Handle Everything Else.

You approve the load, we handle rate confirmations, BOL coordination, check calls, and invoicing. When you deliver, we collect. You get paid 95% of gross — we keep 5%. That's the whole deal.

Why Greenlight

Most Dispatchers Work for the Broker. We Work for You.

The trucking industry is full of dispatchers who take whatever rate keeps the broker happy — because that's what keeps loads flowing to them. Greenlight operates differently. We have no broker relationships to protect and no incentive to take low rates. Our only incentive is your gross — because that's what our 5% comes from.

  • No forced dispatch — you choose every single load, no exceptions
  • Flat 5% fee, nothing else — no setup fees, no monthly minimums
  • Dedicated dispatcher assigned to your account personally
  • 24/7 emergency contact line — we pick up when you need us
  • Full rate transparency — you see every number on every offer

Carrier Stories

Real Drivers. Real Revenue.

Don't take our word for it. Here's what carriers say after switching to Greenlight.

Before Greenlight, I was spending 3–4 hours a day hunting loads on DAT and still not finding rates I was happy with. Now my dispatcher sends me options every morning before I've had my first cup of coffee. I'm averaging $0.12 more per mile than I was booking myself, and I've got my weekends back. This is the best business decision I've made since buying my truck.

MT
Marcus T.
Owner-Operator, Dry VanM&T Transport LLC
14 months with Greenlight

I was skeptical about paying someone 5% — I figured I could find my own loads. Then I actually did the math. Greenlight was getting me $2,800–$3,200 loads when I was booking $2,200–$2,500 on my own. That's not 5% extra — that's 20–30% more revenue. They know which brokers pay flatbed rates and which ones lowball you. The paperwork handling alone is worth it.

9 months with Greenlight

My husband and I run three dry vans. Managing load boards, calling brokers, and doing paperwork for three trucks was a full-time job on top of our actual full-time jobs. Greenlight handles all three trucks like they're their own. Our dispatcher knows each driver's home time needs and works hard to get them back. Revenue is up 18% compared to when we were dispatching ourselves. We should have done this sooner.

FAQ

Questions Carriers Always Ask

Real answers to real questions — no marketing fluff.

We charge a flat 5% of your gross load rate — nothing else. No setup fees, no monthly minimums, no hidden charges. If you haul a $2,000 load, you pay $100. If we have a slow week and you run fewer miles, you pay less. We only make money when you make money, which means we're always motivated to find you the best freight.

Absolutely — 100% no forced dispatch. This is a non-negotiable principle at Greenlight. You are the owner-operator and it's your truck. If a load doesn't work for your schedule, preferred lanes, home time requirements, or just doesn't pay enough, you say no and we find something better. We will never pressure you to take a load you're not comfortable with.

No. You keep your own authority, MC number, and operating rights. Greenlight acts as your dispatcher — we find loads and negotiate rates on your behalf using your authority and your name. We're not a motor carrier. We don't add you to our authority. Your business remains completely independent, and you can work with other services or dispatch yourself at any time.

We have subscriptions to DAT (featured member), Truckstop.com, 123Loadboard, and Direct Freight. Beyond load boards, we've built direct relationships with regional and national brokers including CH Robinson, Echo Global Logistics, Coyote Logistics, Convoy, and over 50 smaller brokerage operations. Direct broker relationships often mean better rates and faster booking than what you'll find on public boards.

Most new carriers are loaded within 24–48 hours of completing onboarding. The onboarding process itself takes about 15–20 minutes — we collect your authority info, preferred lanes, equipment specs, and rate targets. Once we have that, we start sourcing immediately. Many of our carriers get their first load offer the same day they sign up.

Yes, we work with carriers who have new MC authority. You will need to have your operating authority active (not pending) and adequate insurance ($750K+ general liability for dry van, more for hazmat). We do require that you've completed your DOT requirements including a valid CDL (for Class A equipment). Many brokers require 30–90 days of authority age — our team knows which brokers work with newer carriers and will source loads accordingly.

Getting started is simple. We need: your MC number and DOT number, a copy of your operating authority, your Certificate of Insurance (naming our dispatching service as a certificate holder), your W-9, equipment details (truck type, year, trailer type, dimensions), preferred lanes or home state, and your rate targets. You'll also sign our Dispatcher-Carrier Agreement, which is straightforward and non-exclusive. The whole process takes about 15–20 minutes.

After each load is delivered and invoiced to the broker, we deduct our 5% fee from the gross rate. You receive the remaining 95% via ACH direct deposit to your business bank account, typically within 1–3 business days of the broker paying. We provide a weekly settlement statement showing all loads hauled, gross rates, our fee, and your net pay. No surprise deductions, no delayed payments, no float games.
