Customer Types on Evotrux

Shippers

Shippers are customers who post loads and book trucks to move freight.

Shippers use Evotrux to:

• Post shipments and receive quotes

• Compare carriers and pricing

• Book, manage, and track freight

Types of Shippers

Direct Shippers

Direct Shippers are companies moving their own freight.

Examples include:

• Manufacturers

• Retailers

• Distributors

• Wholesalers

Direct Shippers use Evotrux to work directly with carriers, helping reduce costs and improve visibility into their transportation network.

Brokers (3PLs)

Broker Shippers are third-party logistics providers that arrange transportation on behalf of their customers.

• They do not own the freight

• They manage loads for shippers and book carriers to move them

• They use Evotrux as a digital brokerage tool to source capacity and manage shipments

Carriers

Carriers are customers who quote on shipments, book loads, and move freight.

Carriers use Evotrux to:

• Discover available loads

• Submit quotes and negotiate rates

• Book shipments and complete deliveries

Types of Carriers

Trucking Companies (Asset-Based)

Trucking Companies own or operate trucks and trailers.

• Physically move the freight

• Use Evotrux to find loads that match their equipment and lanes

• Complete pickup, delivery, and tracking requirements

Brokers (Non-Asset)

Carrier Brokers do not own trucks.

• They act as intermediaries between shippers and trucking companies

• May submit quotes and manage transportation using partner carriers

• Do not physically move the freight themselves

Why This Matters

Understanding customer types helps set clear expectations around:

• Who is moving the freight

• Who is responsible for booking and delivery

• How quotes and bookings are handled on the platform

Evotrux is designed to support all of these customer types while maintaining transparency and control for everyone involved.
