FOR CARRIERS

Haul for a Broker
That Respects the Driver.

We're not in the business of grinding carriers on rates or ghosting you when there's a problem. We're in the business of keeping your trailer loaded with freight that pays on time, every time.

CARRIER FAQ

Common Questions

Straight answers to the questions we get most often. Don't see yours? Call us and we'll talk you through it.

What documents do I need to set up as a carrier?

We need your MC authority letter, current certificate of insurance ($1M auto / $100K cargo minimum), W-9 form, and voided check or direct deposit form. Our team reviews everything within one business day.

How quickly can I get approved?

Most carriers are approved within 24 hours of submitting a complete packet. Rush approvals are available. Just let us know when you send the paperwork and we'll prioritize it.

Do you work with new authorities?

We require a minimum of 9 months active authority. Our onboarding team will guide you through verification steps and help you start running loads quickly.

What are your insurance requirements?

Minimum $1M auto liability and $100K cargo coverage. Hazmat and high-value freight may require higher limits. We'll let you know before dispatch if a specific load has stricter requirements.

How do I submit invoices and get paid?

Email a signed BOL/POD and your invoice to bilol@elephantcargollc.com, or upload them through our carrier portal. Quick pay is processed the same day we receive clean paperwork.

Can I decline a load offer?

Always. You're an independent partner. We offer, you decide. No pressure, no penalties, no getting cut out of future freight for passing on a load that doesn't work for you.

Do you accept factoring companies?

Yes. We're set up with all the major factoring companies and happy to work with new ones. Send us a Notice of Assignment during onboarding and we'll take care of the rest.

What kind of freight do you typically move?

Dry van, reefer, flatbed, step-deck, RGN, sprinter vans, and power-only. We cover all 48 continental states with strong volume in the Midwest, Southeast, and along I-70/I-80 corridors.
