    Anyone have any experience with this? I am doing a little research for my company. We are small but growing. Hauling for a couple of companies in ND and New Mexico. I'd love to know more about what it takes to broker crude. How does one go about sealing a deal with an oil marketing company? Any insight would be appreciated. We can also email if you prefer. Thanks.

    Sincerely,

    Jason

    crude oil isn't really a brokered load. basically a company signs a contract with a oil company to haul there crude oil, this company does direct shipments for that oil company. They haul the crude from oil well location to pipeline or rail facility.

    Thanks. I already understand the basics. We are currently hauling loads but I was just curious about the details of the contracts with the oil companies. I'd love to make that leap at some point with our company.
