Direct Freight Services connects carriers with loads posted mostly by brokers, with some direct shippers also posting. Its load board supports searching and posting loads and trucks, and matching load alerts, mileage, and maps are available. The company says its Driver app searches more than 300K loads daily. A lane pricing tool uses millions of load records to provide spot market rates for thousands of lanes. Professional Carrier adds current and historical freight rates, toll costs, saved lanes, and team management; Enhanced Carrier and Professional Carrier also include credit scores, days to pay, and full credit reports. The service is available on the web and through iOS and Android apps. The Free plan costs nothing and allows three load searches per day. Basic Carrier costs $39 a month after 15 days for $1; Enhanced Carrier costs $49 a month and Professional Carrier $69 a month, each after 15 days for $1. The FAQ notes that unavailable loads may remain listed and most loads do not show pay rates.
