CarrierLinq is a freight / last-mile carrier-matching platform for 3PLs and motor carriers. We are not CareerLink or any workforce program. We're building the missing link between 3PL companies and carriers -- a purpose-built marketplace that replaces spreadsheets, phone trees, and guesswork with smart, location-aware connections.
Make last-mile carrier sourcing as fast and simple as it should be
The last-mile logistics industry moves billions of dollars in goods every year, yet the process of finding and vetting motor carriers still runs on outdated methods. 3PL companies spend weeks cold-calling, emailing, and sifting through spreadsheets to find carriers that match their service area, equipment needs, and capability requirements.
CarrierLinq was founded to solve this exact problem. We believe that connecting a 3PL with the right carrier shouldn't take 45 days -- it should take minutes. Our platform uses geo-filtering, capability matching, and verified credentials to instantly surface the right partners for every opportunity.
A smarter way to connect 3PLs with qualified motor carriers
Every opportunity and carrier profile is tied to a real service area. Our PostGIS-powered engine filters by zip code radius so carriers only see work they can actually reach, and 3PLs only see carriers who serve their region.
Carriers register with their USDOT number, MC number, and EIN. 3PLs can review these credentials before connecting -- no more blind trust or manual background checks.
See our verification process →From box trucks to flatbeds, white glove to threshold delivery -- opportunities specify exactly what's needed, and carriers showcase exactly what they offer. Geo and capability filters surface strong matches — you still choose who to engage.
CarrierLinq isn't a broker. We connect 3PLs and carriers directly. Once interest is expressed, both sides take the conversation forward on their own terms. No middleman fees, no lock-in.
If you coordinate final-mile deliveries -- threshold, white glove, appliance install, or flatbed -- and need reliable motor carriers in specific regions, CarrierLinq helps you find them without the usual weeks of sourcing and vetting.
If you own trucks and crews and want to grow your business with 3PL partnerships, CarrierLinq puts relevant opportunities in front of you based on your location, equipment, and capabilities -- no cold calls required.
Finding a carrier partner shouldn't take weeks. We optimize every step so you can go from search to connection in minutes.
Verified credentials, real service areas, and honest profiles. Both sides know exactly who they're connecting with.
We're not a generic marketplace. CarrierLinq is purpose-built for last-mile logistics -- every feature serves this specific workflow.
How the platform operates today for 3PLs and carriers
Carriers register with USDOT and MC numbers so 3PLs can review public authority signals before connecting. See Trust & Safety for what we check.
Opportunities and carrier profiles are tied to real service areas. Carriers only see work they can reach; 3PLs only see overlapping coverage.
Core matching does not take a load commission. After mutual interest, both sides connect directly and negotiate on their own terms.
