Whats your grade on the Internet Truckstop

It may be like the BBB, you can pay them money to get a better grade.

 

Many shippers are now using CSA scores and will not load carriers with bad scores because some lawyer will find them at fault in accident for using that xarrier.
It might not be the broker it might be the the shippers requirement on who hauls there frieght

 

And this is why I think CSA scores are BS. Take a small carrier and receive 2 minor infractions and your at a severe setback by there standards. Then turn around and check out Swifts score.

That was the whole point of CSA scores. The rules are always made to benefit the largest of companies and put burdens on you the small operator. That's how everything works. It's the golden rule. Those who have the gold make up all the rules. LOL

 

I'm not saying that's right but that is the reality of it. Some shippers will not load carriers with bad scores for liability reasons.

 

Maybe for a few, but my bet is when the discount $1.00/mile super savings guy calls up all bets are off.

 

yeah for sure LOL

 

It's probably a algorithm based on combination of things such as
CSA score
On time pick up & deliveries on loads carrier has pulled for them
How many loads pulled for them and probably other factors
