A website for a flatbed broker

Flatbed shippers send a photo of a piece of steel and expect a person who knows what a tarp is. The broker site should ask for that photo and say which open-deck freight you arrange. Motus will not publish a legal-height chart, and we will not use a carrier's trailer as your fleet.

Name the freight

Steel, lumber, machinery, or the mix you actually quote. Step deck and double drop only if you arrange them. The carrier pages for flatbed, step deck, and heavy haul are for the trucks. This page is for the desk.

A gallery should be loads you have permission to show, captioned as brokered, not as equipment you own.

The form asks for a photo

Origin, destination, weight, dimensions, and a picture. quotes@ on your domain. A person replies with a rate and whether the move needs a permit or a pilot car. We will not write the permit, and we will not promise the car.

Carriers who want to haul for you use a separate address, carriers@, so a packet does not bury a hot quote.

No borrowed credibility

No mill logo unless that customer agreed to the words. No government seal. Your broker authority in plain text if it is yours. Growth ($597) fits a specialist desk. Authority ($1,197) fits a project desk with several equipment types to explain.

Specialist open-deck desks usually buy Growth ($597).

The package

Starter is $274, Growth is $597, and Authority is $1,197. Each price is one time. Year-1 hosting is included, then hosting is $150 a year. Company email on your domain is part of a transportation launch. A mailbox-provider seat fee and a registrar's domain fee are quoted before they start. The breakdown is on what a trucking website costs.

Questions

Will you say how tall a load can be?
No. We do not publish a legal height. Your team answers from the photo and the route.
Can I use carrier photos?
Only with permission, and the caption has to say the truck is not yours if it is not yours.
Is this the flatbed carrier page?
No. That page is for the fleet. Link it only if you also operate trucks.
Do you draw permits?
No. The site describes the brokerage. Permit work stays with whoever actually files it.
