A standing network of brokers and shippers we've already vetted.

Paperwork chase

Rate confirmations, BOLs, and detention paperwork tracked down for you.

Common questions

Dispatch — frequently asked

Do I lose control of my truck's schedule?
No. Your dispatcher works under your authority and confirms every load with you before it's booked — you set the lanes, rates, and days you want to run.
What hours is dispatch actually staffed?
24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. Overnight and weekend loads get the same live attention as a Tuesday afternoon.
Do you dispatch carriers in every state?
Yes — dispatch coverage is nationwide across the lower 48, on major interstates and regional lanes alike, not limited to any one region.
Can I keep some loads I book myself?
Yes. Plenty of carriers use Vanguard to fill gaps around direct customers they already have — it's your call which loads run through us.
How is this different from a load board subscription?
A load board shows you what's out there. A dispatcher works it — calling brokers, negotiating rate, and handling the back-and-forth so you're not doing it from the cab.
