Freight Broker FAQ

What is the largest freight broker in North America?

C.H. Robinson Worldwide is the largest freight broker in North America, ranked #1 by Transport Topics with over $11.8B in gross revenue and 85,000+ carriers in its network. Founded in 1905 and headquartered in Eden Prairie, MN, it is publicly traded on NASDAQ (CHRW). View C.H. Robinson's profile →

Do freight brokers need to be FMCSA licensed?

Yes. All freight brokers operating in the United States must hold a valid Broker Authority issued by the FMCSA (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration), maintain a $75,000 surety bond (BMC-84), and register a Designated Process Agent (BOC-3). You can verify any broker's authority at li-public.fmcsa.dot.gov. Every profile in this directory includes the broker's MC#, USDOT#, and live authority status.

What is the difference between FTL and LTL freight brokers?

FTL (Full Truckload) brokers move shipments that fill an entire trailer — typically 10,000–45,000 lbs. LTL (Less Than Truckload) brokers consolidate smaller shipments from multiple shippers onto one truck. Most large brokers handle both, but some specialize: WWEX Group and Echo Global Logistics are known for LTL, while TQL and Landstar are FTL-dominant. Browse FTL brokers → or browse LTL brokers →
