When it comes to shipping cars, you have a plethora of options at your disposal. Whether you’re moving vehicles across the country or handling a local shipment, navigating the logistics can be daunting. You might consider working directly with a carrier, but if you’re not just shipping to or from a single location, it might not meet all of your needs. Alternatively, there’s the option of using load boards to manage everything yourself. However, taking this route means you’re responsible for all the logistics—and all the risks.
You might wonder, what risks could possibly exist in auto shipping? Let’s break down a couple of pressing issues you might encounter.
**The Rising Threat of Auto Theft and Double Brokering**
Auto theft by fake carriers is becoming increasingly prevalent. While this may sound alarming, there’s even more to it. One significant concern in the logistics world is something called double brokering. You may think, “As long as my car gets delivered, what does it matter?” But here’s the catch: if your vehicle arrives damaged and it was double brokered, you’re in a tough spot. The insurance for the company you hired won’t cover the damage because they weren’t the ones hauling it. The carrier that actually transported your vehicle won’t have any liability either, since you didn’t have a contract with them. Unfortunately, load boards won’t come to your rescue either, leaving you to cover the costs out of pocket.
This is precisely why working with a reliable broker like RC Logistics LLC is crucial.
**The Load Board Dilemma**
You may have heard of the big, well-known load boards that advertise how they vet their carriers and promise to assist you. However, based on our extensive experience—along with feedback from many others—the reality can be quite different. At RC Logistics, we prioritize vetting carriers and set high expectations for the service providers we collaborate with.
When we come across carriers engaged in double brokering or operating without proper insurance, we gather all relevant evidence and report these issues to the load boards—only to find that nothing gets resolved. We might be advised to leave a negative rating, but the load boards often refuse to act on it. They allow these bad actors to continue operating on their platform.
