Freight Factoring Has Many Benefits...

Factoring has been around for thousands of years for a reason; it solves cash flow constraints caused by unpaid invoices.  It helps a business that is struggling with cash flow because of invoices that have not been paid, factoring can also help a company go after and secure those potential customers who are requesting credit terms of 30 to 90 days, but the company is unable to grant because it would tie up cash.

How does it work?

Simple, after you have delivered the product or services rendered to your customer and issued your invoice under agreed terms of 30 to 90 days, you then sell that invoice to the factoring company, the factor will advance you anywhere between 80% to 95% of that invoice generally within 24 hours, so, the business will continue to generate cash flow on those open invoices with credit terms.  And once the factoring company collects on the invoice, the difference of 80% to 95% that was held back is returned to you, less the small.

Why freight factoring is so important to a carrier?  Freight factoring is the blood flow of cash flow, a carrier to remain competitive and operate successfully must offer credit to its customers, typically 30 to 90 days, so this is cash that the business will not receive right away, so how can the business operate having to wait that long for their payments, well, freight factoring?  With factoring, the trucking company sells its outstanding invoices to a factoring company right after the invoice is issued, providing the carrier with the necessary cash to continue operating without a cash flow shortfall. https://www.1sttruckingfactoring.com

Shortage of Truckers

FoxBusiness reported recently on the shortage of truckers, specifically long-haulers, as per the ATA (American Trucking Association) the trucking industry has a shortage of about 30,000 of qualified drivers, and expected to raise to 200,000 over the next 10 years.   Is DOT Secretary Foxx looking into this, there seems to be a significant opportunity to create new jobs in the transportation sector? According to the June 2014 North American freight Numbers, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics reported that "Trucks carry three-fifths of U.S.-NAFTA freight and are the most heavily utilized mode for moving goods to and from both U.S.-NAFTA partners. Trucks carried 59.5 percent of U.S.-NAFTA freight in June 2014, accounting for $29.8 billion of imports and $31.4 billion of exports." There is a strong focus on infrastructure investments which is necessary but the DOT should not overlook  an opportunity to create jobs.
