For-Hire Carrier
For-Hire carriers are transportation service providers that offer their services to the public on a fee basis. These carriers typically provide trucking or shipping services and may specialize in specific types of freight, such as refrigerated goods or hazardous materials. For-hire carriers are regulated by the federal government and must meet certain safety and insurance requirements.
Logistics companies often work with for-hire carriers to transport goods from one location to another. When choosing a for-hire carrier, it is important to consider factors such as:
- the company’s safety record,
- insurance coverage,
- type of equipment used.
The right carrier can help to ensure that your goods arrive at their destination safely and on time.
