Believe me that they will make sure to have their trucks loaded and on the road all the time.
We are all aware that experienced truck brokers have connections all around the world, so the nationwide freight will be at their disponibility. Just have in mind how much money are made by transporting nationwide freight.
It is good to know that brokers in fact at the same time by obtaining their license they are able to perform operations as carriers. Whereas Motor Carriers must obtain several permits and certificates in order to do their job. We can easily recognize if the broker is at the same time carrier by seeing on the bill if his name stands as the carrier.

When the broker is at the same time carrier, he will be the one that is going to be responsible if there is any damage or loss of the load. But they will take care that damage and loss will not happen. They will do so by being very careful when choosing the right customers, as well by giving their truck drivers a good training. They have the whole process planned in advance.
In my opinion it is a smart move but at this moment it is concentrated only on the biggest trucking companies and in the future we can expect to see brokers buying even smaller companies with fleet size up to 200 trucks. This way there will be few trucking/broker giants formed.
