Why WhatsApp Is Still Doing Mexico TMS Work

Your customer asks if you can handle their Mexico freight. Before you say yes, you need to understand who will move it and what happens when the shipment changes hands at the border. I’m joined by Matt Silver, co-founder and CEO of Cargado, to walk through moving that first cross-border load. Matt explains how a trailer can stay loaded while the truck and driver change, how to find carriers that serve the right lanes, and why introductions to the customs broker matter. We also discuss how Cargado uses carrier bids to inform pricing and brings freight conversations out of scattered WhatsApp chats. This conversation is part of CargoRex’s Mexico Cross-Border Freight Guide.
