Why brokers and carriers both show up here

Cargado is a two-sided marketplace. Brokers, 3PLs and forwarders pay a subscription to post freight and quote from Market Rates. Carriers use the marketplace at no cost to find that freight and bid on it. A story from either side is a story about the same lane, so both belong on this page.

Questions about these stories

Are these real customers?
Yes. Every customer card links to a story published on cargado.com with the company's name, the person quoted and their title. The figures on each card are the ones the customer shared for that story, quoted as the story states them. The GoodShip card is a partnership, not a customer story, and it links to the partnership page.
Can we talk to one of these customers before we sign?
Ask us on a call. We will walk through the stories closest to your lanes and equipment and tell you what is possible.
What do brokers, 3PLs and forwarders pay?
A subscription based on how much Mexico and Canada freight you move, with unlimited users on every plan and no commission or percentage on loads. Smaller teams usually start in the four figures a year. Market Rates is built in. See the pricing page, or talk to us for a quote.
Do carriers pay to use Cargado?
No. If you move the freight, marketplace access is at no cost: find and book Mexico and Canada loads, message brokers in your own language and bid without a subscription. The brokers posting the freight are the ones who pay.
Where are the rest of the stories?
The customer stories page lists every published story, including the ones not on this page yet.
