Watch a Mexico load go from quote to covered

Your customer needs a rate on a load from Monterrey to Chicago. So you start calling carriers. Who runs Mexico? Who crosses at Laredo? What's the rate today? By the time you have a number, your customer may have given the load to another broker. Cargado fixes both halves of that problem: knowing the rate, and finding the truck. It's an invite-only marketplace of more than twenty-three hundred vetted carriers, running door to door across the U.S., Mexico and Canada: cross-border in both directions, and domestic freight inside Mexico and Canada. Carriers join free, which lets us be selective. Every one is verified before they can bid on your freight. Start with the rate. Enter the lane, pick the trailer, and get rates. These come from real carrier bids on Cargado, not data bought from a third party. The low end means a quarter of bids came in at or below that number. The rates are all-in and door to door, crossing included. Add your margin, and quote while your customer is still on the phone. Got an RFP with two hundred lanes? Don't look them up one at a time. Paste the lanes into Excel, and the Cargado add-in fills in low, median and high for every lane with enough bid data. Now find the truck. There are four ways to post. A load is one shipment. A lane is freight that repeats. A potential load or lane is freight you're still quoting, so you can line up carriers before you win it. Choose the trailer: dry van, reefer, flatbed, or something more specialized. Add where it crosses the border, what's going in the trailer, and requirements like CTPAT. Block any carrier you don't want to see it. Then set your rate, with the market rate right beside it, and post. So who sees it? Not everyone. The posting only goes to the carriers who will actually haul that freight: the right equipment, the border they cross, the lanes they serve. What is left is ordered by what they have actually done: the lanes they have bid and hauled, the preferences on their profile, and the trucks they have posted empty nearby. And a carrier you have marked do not use never sees your freight. When you post, carriers who fit the lane get a notification on the channel they use: WhatsApp, email, or the Cargado app. You don't have to wait for them. Cargado shows you carriers who've already run this lane. Open a profile, check their certifications and fleet, and message them directly. Bids come in on the load. Compare them side by side, chat with the carrier, and accept the one that works. And if your team lives in a TMS, Cargado connects to it. McLeod, Turvo, Tai and Revenova, with more on the way. Loads that match your rules post to Cargado on their own, and come off the board when they're covered. Your carrier statuses sync too, so a do-not-use carrier never sees your freight. Rates reach your pricing tools through the Cargado API. And if you run your own in-house system, we do the heavy lifting to connect it. Pricing is simple. Plans are based on usage, every plan includes unlimited users, and we never take a cut of your freight. Your whole team can quote and cover Mexico and Canada freight from day one.
