25 Years of Experience
as Both a Shipper
and a Broker
How was the Carrier Consortium conceived?
The Carrier Consortium was born from my 17-year experience as a shipper in the lumber business and my eight years as a freight broker. During this time, I gained a deep understanding of the key elements in transportation:
Reliability
Reliability means knowing that I can count on you. Transportation involves many uncontrollable components, such as weather, mechanical issues, and traffic. While we can’t control these factors, we can control our word. All I ask is that you do what you say you will do. If something changes, please let me know immediately.
Communication
We believe in the power of clear and constant communication. From the moment you partner with us, you’ll experience transparent updates and real-time tracking, keeping you informed every step of the way. Our proactive approach ensures that you are always in the loop, reducing uncertainties and enhancing trust. The one thing in business and life that is always controllable is communication.
Experience as a Broker
I In my eight years as a freight broker, I witnessed both the positives and negatives of the industry. While there are benefits to working with a good 3PL/Broker, I found that many practices have become antiquated, redundant, and too costly. During this time, I had the opportunity to collaborate with numerous carriers. I learned that knowing which carriers to avoid is just as important as knowing which ones to partner with. This experience has enabled me to understand which carriers to work with based on the specific needs and criteria of my shippers.
At The Carrier Consortium, we combine this extensive experience with our core values of reliability and communication to provide exceptional freight brokerage services. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards and ensuring the success of our clients.
The Carrier Consortium. Better than your average broker
