It’s time for auto haulers to take back the driver’s seat
AHX connects you directly to dealers, OEMs, auctions, and fleets across the country. Start filling your trucks on your terms. More loads. No broker cuts. Faster payouts.
The broker model works against you
As a car hauler, your business depends on moving vehicles. But when brokers sit between you and the shipper, they take 20–35% of the rate just for coordinating. You do the work. They pocket the spread. That model is built for them, not for you.
Brokers squeeze your rate
The broker quotes the shipper one number and offers you another. The spread is their profit. You’re the one doing the actual work, and you’re the one absorbing the rate compression.
Payment takes 30–60 days
Standard broker payment terms mean you haul a vehicle today and see payment next month. For owner-operators and small carriers, that cash flow gap is a real operational problem.
You have no relationship with the shipper
The broker owns the customer relationship. You’re a subcontractor. If a shipper loves your service, they can’t come back to you directly — they come back to the broker.
"We want you to have the most in your pocket and keep your trucks full."

How carrier verification works
AHX verifies every carrier before they can access shipments. The process is designed to be fast and straightforward. You’ll need:
- Valid DOT number and operating authority
- Current certificate of insurance (COI)
- Background check completion
- Platform profile with equipment details
Most carriers complete verification in under 24 hours. Our carrier success team is available to help if you hit any snags.

Carrier FAQ
How does AHX make money if it’s free to join?
AHX charges a transparent platform fee to shippers — not to carriers. You never pay to access loads on the platform.
How does carrier Quick Pay work?
After delivery confirmation, payment is initiated via ACH within 48 hours. There is no fee to access Quick Pay — it’s the standard payment method for all AHX carrier transactions.
What if a shipper doesn’t confirm delivery?
Our platform tracks delivery through the booking process and has a dispute resolution path for any confirmation delays. Our carrier success team can help with any payment issues.
Can carriers only operate in specific lanes on AHX?
Yes. Your profile includes service area configuration. You’ll see shipments that match your lanes and can filter for the routes that work for your operation.
How does AHX deal with disputes between carriers and shippers?
AHX has a built-in dispute resolution process. Carriers have direct recourse and carrier support available. You’re not managing disputes through a middleman who doesn’t have your interests in mind.
