Common questions

Straight answers
from your broker

Everything you need to know before moving your first load with FFA International.

Most quotes come back within 15 minutes during business hours. For standard lanes, same-day pricing is our norm — not a promise we stretch. Call dispatch or submit the form and we'll have a number to you fast.

Dry Van, FTL, LTL, refrigerated, flatbed, heavy haul, expedited, and intermodal — across all 48 contiguous states plus Canada. If it moves on a truck, rail, or needs a team driver, we have the network to cover it.

Yes — every carrier in our network is screened against FMSCA/MOTUS for active authority, adequate cargo and liability insurance, and safety ratings before they move a single load. We don't put your freight on a carrier we wouldn't vouch for.

Full Truckload (FTL) means your freight gets a dedicated trailer — faster, fewer handoffs, lower damage risk. Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) shares space with other shippers, which cuts cost but adds transit time. We'll tell you which makes sense for your load.

Absolutely. Our reefer network covers the full spectrum from chilled produce to frozen pharma. Carriers provide continuous temperature logs and FSMA-compliant documentation. Pre-cooled trailers are confirmed before load tender.

Once your shipment is on the road, we track it through our TMS system. This allows us to monitor the load status, location updates, and delivery progress throughout the trip.

All 48 contiguous states plus Canada, with especially strong coverage on Midwest corridors — Chicago, Saint Louis, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Detroit — and outbound to both coasts. Based in Saint Charles, IL puts us in the center of the country's busiest freight lanes.

Load boards match you with whoever's available. We match you with the right carrier — vetted, reliable, and priced honestly. You get a licensed broker behind the transaction, a single contact who owns the load, and someone who picks up the phone when something goes sideways.
