What does Kindred United do?
Kindred United helps coordinate transportation for shippers, businesses, carriers, and transportation partners. That can include freight brokerage, logistics coordination, carrier connections, dispatch support, and drive-away transportation where applicable.
Can Kindred United help move my shipment?
Yes, you can start by sharing what needs to move, the origin, destination, timing, and requirements. We will review the request and explain what may be possible and what information is needed next.
What is the difference between brokerage and dispatch support?
Brokerage coordinates transportation between a shipper and a motor carrier. Dispatch support helps a carrier organize its transportation work. They are different roles, and the motor carrier remains responsible for operating its equipment and transporting freight.
Do you work with carriers and transportation partners?
Yes. Carriers and transportation partners can reach out to discuss their operation, equipment, authority, and support needs. A conversation does not guarantee freight availability or a specific opportunity.
What information should I include in a transportation request?
Include what needs to move, origin, destination, preferred timing, dimensions or weight where relevant, special handling or delivery requirements, and the best way to reach you. If you do not have every detail, send what you know.
What is logistics coordination?
Logistics coordination is the organization of the information, timing, communication, and next actions involved in a transportation move. It helps the people involved understand what has been confirmed and what still needs attention.
What is drive-away transportation?
Drive-away transportation moves a vehicle by driving it from one location to another. The right arrangement may depend on the vehicle, timing, route, driver requirements, and other details of the request.
Do I need to understand transportation terminology first?
No. Start with the basic facts of the move. We will ask clarifying questions and explain the path in plain language.
What happens after I contact Kindred United?
We review the information you provide, follow up with questions where needed, and explain the next step. If the request is a fit, we can discuss how the transportation should be coordinated.
