Whether they realize it or not, everyone in this country has been touched by the freight trucking industry. In fact, chances are good that every product and material you purchase has spent some time on a truck. That’s because our nation’s highways are filled with trucks that provide the stock that we see in stores everyday. Getting products to their destinations safely and on time is what freight trucking companies do, and it’s our goal, too. Freight Rate Central strives to offer trucking services to everyone at an affordable price.

Freight Trucking Companies – An Industry on the Move
The number of goods that are transported every day in the USA is astronomical, but when you think about it in terms of weight, it becomes virtually unbelievable. In 2012, according to the US Department of Transport’s Bureau Of Transportation Statistics (BTS), $11.7 billion tons of freight was transported on America’s road network. The combined commercial value of all those shipments was $13.6 trillion, traveling a total of 3.3 trillion ton-miles. Trucking really does keep America’s economy on the move.
According to the BTS, the amount of freight carried by the for-hire transportation industry has risen steadily during 2014, mirroring the overall recovery of the US economy. If you’re contributing to these numbers by shipping items domestically, you could save yourself or your company some money by looking into shipping with Freight Rate Central. We offer the lowest prices in the industry because we contract with over 100 major carriers across the country. Even if you’re a small business, you can receive the same pricing discounts that Fortune 500 companies enjoy.
Thinking Locally, Nationally and Internationally
Working with independent freight trucking companies across the USA, as well as international carriers, enables Freight Rate Central to make the most of local knowledge and experience, matching clients with the shipping companies that can best meet their needs. Carriers with gaps in their shipping schedule or who have space for ship less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments use Freight Rate Central to find customers who can make use of the partial load space, or are ready to take advantage of a last-minute opening. Freight trucking customers benefit by having access to hundreds of trucking companies, all offering competitive quotes and a variety of transportation methods.
