I completed the Load Training Course and had a great experience. It was very informative, well-organized professionally run. From the initial sign up there were videos and handouts available to help prepare for the course which was very helpful. Joel is very knowledgeable of all the different aspects of the transportation industry and presented it to the class in a clear, patient and understandable way. He took all the time needed to make sure everyone understood the lesson. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking to get into the freight brokering business.Posted on Google![]()

What is a Freight Broker?
A Freight Broker (property broker) is the middleman or intermediary between a shipper and a motor carrier. Freight Brokers arrange and facilitate the transportation of freight across the United States. They do not take possession or directly transport the freight goods, and do not assume the liability or responsibility for the freight.
Many people take freight broker training because the industry offers great opportunity and the flexibility to work from home on your own schedule. It also doesn’t require the overhead cost of truck ownership and has none of the medical issues associated with trucking.
What Are The Requirements to Become a Freight Broker?
To become a freight broker you will need the following:
- Apply for a Freight Broker Authority (license) through the FMCSA by completing the OP-1 Form and paying your $300 fee.
(Don’t want to get your own authority yet? Become an Agent) - Obtain a $75,000 Surety Bond or Trust. Obtained through banks, insurance, and bonding companies. Costs vary depending on factors like credit and programs. You will be required to file form BMC-84 or B-C-85 before your authority becomes active. Worried about the bond or costs? We have solutions.
- File form BOC-3, Obtain Processing Agents. Est. $50 (A bond company may do this for you)
- File a (UCR) Unified Carrier Registration
Need assistance applying for your freight broker authority? We can do it for you. Contact us.
Do I need Transportation Experience to Become a Freight Broker?
Absolutely not! Every single month, many of our students attending our freight broker classes come from other industries outside of logistics and transportation. As the nation’s largest freight broker school with a full curriculum, we teach both those with and without industry experience.
However, if you do have trucking or transportation experience, we can show you how to put that experience to work on the other side of the industry. Especially if you own equipment! Truckers and their family members often take freight broker training courses to help them get better-paying loads.
What is the Difference Between a Freight Broker and a Freight Agent?
The main differences between the broker and agent are the licensing, liability, and finances.
Freight Brokers are licensed through the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and freight agents are not licensed or bonded.
A freight agent is an individual or company that usually operates independently under an existing freight broker’s operating authority. Their main focus is developing clients and arranging the transportation of freight between their shippers and carriers. Becoming a freight agent is a popular way to get started in freight brokering for many reasons, including wanting to get comfortable before going out on their own.
Can I Broker Freight From My Home or Office?
You sure can!
One of the top perks of taking freight broker training and becoming a freight broker is the flexibility it offers. Many freight brokers and agents operate from home or their own private offices. Some even get their start moving freight while they are still on the road as carriers. What a great way to turn your downtime into potential income. We have agents located all over the country.
