A Smarter Way to Manage LTL Freight
Current LTL Marketplace
Outdated technology, multiple websites, and manual data entry create errors and waste valuable time.

Poor customer support and limited freight expertise turn small issues into major frustrations — for both you and your customers.
Overpaying for freight, limited transparency, and lack of data insights make it difficult to control costs.

COST & VISIBILITY
The #1 LTL Freight Marketplace in the U.S.
Built by Logistics Managers Who Lived the Problem
Founded in May 2022 by former logistics managers, GreatFreightRates.com was created to solve the everyday frustrations of managing LTL freight.
Traditional 3PLs often limit pricing transparency, deliver slow service, create billing headaches, and rely on outdated technology.
GFR changes that — giving you control of your LTL operations through industry-leading technology, proactive freight experts, proven time savings, and transparent pricing partnerships that reduce your overall freight spend.
Get Started — Grow at Your Own Pace
As former operations managers, we know freight providers overpromise—and switching can feel risky.
So we built a transparent, low-friction onboarding process that lets you start fast and scale up when you’re ready.
We’re here to build trust, learn what matters most to your team and deliver rock-solid freight solutions you’ll feel good about year after year.
