If you’re in the trucking business and struggling to stay ahead because payments take 30, 45, or even 60 days to come in, you’re not alone. This post explains how freight factoring—getting paid faster by selling your invoices—can be a smart move for your business.
What Is Freight Factoring?
Factoring is a financial service where a third-party company buys your unpaid freight invoices and pays you upfront.
How it works:
- Haul the load and submit the invoice.
- Receive 80–95% of the invoice value the same or next day.
- The factoring company collects from the broker or shipper.
- You get the remaining balance minus a fee.
