What is box truck dispatch from Texas Solutions?
Texas Solutions provides box truck dispatch for owner-operators and small fleets across the USA. Dispatchers search and negotiate loads, complete broker setups and keep paperwork organized. The fee is 8% of weekly gross for OTR box trucks and straight trucks, with no flat rate, no setup fee and your approval on every load.
Box truck freight moves in smaller, more frequent loads, which means more calls, more broker setups and more paperwork for every dollar your truck earns. Our dispatchers work the box truck side of the load boards every day.
We match freight to your box length, liftgate and payload, plan around your home time, and negotiate before anything reaches you. As a hypothetical example, a box truck grossing $7,000 to $9,000 in a week would pay $560 to $720 in dispatch fees.
Need a straight truck dispatch service? Straight trucks are dispatched the same way at the same 8%. Whether you run a 26 ft box truck, a smaller non-CDL box truck or a straight truck, your box truck dispatcher handles load search, broker setups, invoicing and rate confirmations, and is reachable 24/7.
Equipment and documents we need
- Active MC authority and USDOT number in your own name
- Certificate of insurance that brokers will accept (auto liability and cargo)
- W-9, and a notice of assignment if you use factoring
- Box length, door type and liftgate details (many loads need a liftgate or pallet jack)
- GVWR of the truck: over 26,000 lbs generally needs a CDL; check FMCSA and your state
How onboarding works
- Send your details. Name, a phone number or email, and your equipment. Call, text or request a callback if you prefer.
- Talk to a dispatcher. We review your authority, equipment, lanes and home-time needs on a quick call.
- Sign and onboard. Sign the dispatch agreement (no long-term contract) and send your MC authority, W-9 and insurance certificate.
- First load free. We search and negotiate your first load with no dispatch fee, and book nothing without your approval.
Your first load is dispatched with no dispatch fee. After that, the percentage in your signed dispatch agreement applies. No long-term contract. A signed dispatch agreement sets your percentage and the notice period before we book loads. Talk to a dispatcher to start.
