The Long Haul from uShip - Episode 009

Host Joe Hafkey and guest Dean Jutilla, both of uShip, discuss how the impact of COVID-19 -- and the resulting freight plunge -- is forcing many transporters and owner-operators to diversify beyond the types of freight they usually haul. They also discuss how uShip can serve as a free load board that provides jobs for hotshot drivers new to uShip. With more than 7,000 shipments on uShip at any given time, there’s always something to fit in the back of a pickup, enclosed trailer, box truck or flatbed. Joe and Dean also talk about ways carriers can help others through charitable shipments on uShip, something the company has done since its inception in 2004.
