How Our Pricing Compares to Industry Averages

Most truck dispatch services charge between 8% and 12% of gross per load, according to typical industry rate structures reported by carrier associations. At 5%, Sam Logistics Pro’s semi truck rate sits well below that range, and our $250/week flat rate for box trucks often works out even cheaper once you factor in a full week of bookings.

You can cross-check current FMCSA registration and authority requirements directly at FMCSA’s registration portal — useful if you’re comparing dispatch pricing against the cost of running your own authority.

Why Transparent Pricing Matters

Many dispatch services bury fees in fine print — minimum weekly charges, cancellation penalties, or hidden onboarding costs. Our pricing page lists exactly what you pay and exactly what’s included, with nothing held back until after you sign.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there really no upfront payment?

Correct — zero. No setup fee, no onboarding fee, no deposit. You pay only after we book your loads.

How is box truck pricing different from semi truck pricing?

Box trucks are billed a flat $250/week regardless of load volume, while semis and hotshot are billed 5% of gross per load. Box truck pricing works best if you run consistently; the percentage model works best if your volume varies week to week.

What if I have a slow week?

On the 5% semi plan — you pay nothing. On the box truck flat rate — if you take a week off and notify us in advance, we pause your billing. Ready to get started? Contact Sam Logistics Pro — no upfront payment, no contracts, no risk.
