BoxDirect Pro / Platform & freight workflows

How to review freight carrier information

BoxDirect's onboarding requests business, insurance and driver-identity documents for review. The purpose is clearer information about the carrier handling a shipment, not a promise that transportation risk or insurance uncertainty has been eliminated.

Review the carrier and the actual shipment together

Treat document review as one part of a load-specific decision. A carrier record, a policy limit and an equipment category answer different questions; none alone proves the cargo, appointments and vehicle are compatible.

  • Review the carrier information associated with the actual booked shipment and the applicable eligibility workflow.
  • Understand that business, insurance and identity documents are submitted for review; do not infer an absolute identity or performance guarantee.
  • Distinguish required insurance limits from coverage for the commodity, loss or circumstance under a particular policy.
  • Confirm the assigned truck or complete dry-van combination, payload, handling equipment and receiving access.
  • Resolve unclear cargo or policy requirements under the applicable agreements before relying on an assumed protection.

Business and identity information goes through review

The public onboarding description includes business information, required documents, a driver's license and a selfie with ID. Review and eligibility are workflow steps, not an endorsement of every future performance outcome. Confirm the assigned carrier information and the actual shipment requirements.

Understand what insurance requirements do and do not mean

The published carrier requirements include a Certificate of Insurance showing $1 million auto liability and $100,000 cargo coverage. Those limits are requirements for carrier submission, not insurance supplied by BoxDirect or a guarantee that every commodity, loss or circumstance is covered.

Suitability remains specific to the booked load

A carrier can have submitted documents and still need to confirm the correct truck, payload, loading equipment and appointment. Review the actual shipment and carrier information together. Claims, exclusions and coverage questions must be evaluated under the applicable policy and agreements, not inferred from a verification label.

Account registration & freight pricing

Account registration costs $0 USD. Freight rates vary by load, and displayed transportation and payment terms apply. The $0 offer is for account creation only; it does not mean free transportation or no platform fees.

Frequently asked questions

What insurance limits does the public site require carriers to submit?

A Certificate of Insurance with $1 million auto liability and $100,000 cargo coverage. These are carrier requirements, not a guarantee of coverage for a particular load.

Does BoxDirect provide cargo insurance?

No insurance provision is promised. Applicable coverage depends on the carrier's policy and terms; BoxDirect's document review does not itself insure the shipment.

Does verification guarantee safe or on-time delivery?

No. Verification supports information and eligibility review but does not eliminate transportation risk or guarantee performance.
