How to become a Truck Dispatcher

How to become a Truck Dispatcher

Hello! My name is Helen

And I am a Senior Truck Dispatcher.
For the last 4 years I have been working in the US Transportation Industry.
Today I will tell you how to become a truck dispatcher in 3 steps

First, let's figure out who a truck dispatcher is. Truck dispatchers coordinate the transportation of goods by truck with drivers, suppliers, and customers. The dispatcher's job is to manage freight on behalf of a carrier. This includes the use of loadboards and personal contacts to search for load, negotiate with brokers, build routes for the driver, and ultimately, deliver the load. In many cases, this position also includes administrative work, like reviewing drivers' logbooks and keeping track of their working hours.

Truck dispatcher is often confused with freight broker, but they have different roles. Broker serve as the middle man between the shipper (who needs to deliver the load) and the carrier (who can carry this load). While the dispatcher is directly related to the carrier and constantly works on his behalf.
