Vetting Reliable Carriers
Our cargo theft prevention protocol starts with finding and screening qualified, reliable carriers. J.B. Hunt works with Highway, a leading technology provider specializing in carrier identity solutions, to deploy a thorough carrier vetting process to help reduce fraud. Our carrier vetting process goes beyond just verifying USDOT numbers, insurance and FCCSA safety ratings. We go deeper and investigate the carrier’s background, how long they’ve been operating and more.
Through our recruitment and vetting efforts, J.B. Hunt provides you with access to thousands of qualified, third-party carriers so you have access to the safe, reliable capacity you need.
