Get your broker authority, bonds, and compliance handled by experts—so you can focus on building profitable shipper and carrier relationships.
Entering the freight brokerage business shouldn't feel overwhelming
The freight brokerage industry offers tremendous opportunity—but only if you have the proper authority and bonds in place. Without them, you can't legally operate, and delays can cost you valuable shipper relationships before you even start.
NLTS takes care of the entire broker authority setup so you can launch faster and start generating revenue. We handle the FMCSA filings, secure your BMC-84 or BMC-85 surety bond, and ensure you're fully compliant from day one.
Plus, you'll get FREE training on how to run a successful brokerage—dispatch best practices, how to hire employees or owner operators, and avoiding common pitfalls like illegal double brokering. Save thousands on paid courses that don't deliver real value.
We file your broker authority application with the FMCSA and guide you through the entire approval process. Most brokers are operational within 30 days.
We connect you with reliable bond providers to secure your $75,000 surety bond—required by law to protect shippers and carriers you work with.
Unlike other services, we offer complimentary training on dispatch, building shipper relationships, finding carriers, and setting up your operations for success.
