Carriers & compliance

Vet carriers before you book them

Onboard carriers with the documents you require, check their FMCSA record in one click and get warned before insurance or authority lapses.

Carrier records

One shared, vetted carrier base

Every broker books from the same list. Each carrier record holds MC and DOT numbers, contacts, documents and onboarding status.

  • Onboarding status: Not started, Documents pending, Under review, Approved or Rejected
  • Only managers and admins can approve or blacklist a carrier
  • Carrier documents are shared across the company
Carriers list with name, MC number, DOT number, contact, onboarding status and blacklisted columns.
Sample data
Onboarding checklist

You decide what every carrier must provide

Your admin sets the required documents once. LoadKeel shows each carrier’s checklist and what is still missing.

Required documents

Choose the paperwork you need from every carrier, such as a W-9, certificate of insurance and signed carrier agreement.

Upload and track

Upload documents to the carrier record and see at a glance which carriers are complete and which are still pending.

Review and approve

A manager or admin reviews the file and approves the carrier, so only vetted carriers get booked.
