What’s New in 2021
FR8Star has been hard at work making updates and adding new features to continue to meet the needs of transporters and customers alike. Here’s a look at some of the updates so far in 2021.
Remarkable Growth and New Features for Shippers, Carriers and brokers
FR8Star, a trusted online marketplace specializing in oversize heavy equipment hauling, announces 269% growth from September 2019 to June 2020. This increase is due in part to substantial new developments introduced on the FR8Star platform throughout that period. More than $5.5 million in freight loads have been billed through FR8Star so far in 2020, and with an increasing number of loads generated each week, there has never been a better time for brokers and carriers to join the FR8Star network and start bidding on loads.
Successful Closing Quarter and New Carrier Feature
FR8Star, a trusted online marketplace and preferred shipping partner of Sandhills Global, announces a successful closing quarter in 2019, with more than 25,000 specialized, less than load (LTL), and flatbed transport loads posted to the FR8Star broker and carrier network. FR8Star connects shippers with expert, bonded brokers and insured carriers, providing a secure and transparent bidding process to facilitate timely, hassle-free shipping. Continuing its momentum into 2020, FR8Star’s lead generation looks to grow past 1,500 quality leads per week, derived from AuctionTime.com, MachineryTrader.com, TractorHouse.com, and TruckPaper.com.
