With Uber Freight Broker Access, Uber Freight manages the booking process and payments for carriers accessing your loads on their platform, but you maintain control over which loads are posted. Just like any other syndication partner, Uber Freight’s role is to connect you with vetted carriers, not to take over the brokerage role.
