What Is Freight Factoring?

Freight factoring is a popular form of financing in the trucking industry that converts unpaid invoices into immediate cash for fleets for a small discount. Thus, fleet owners have the funds they need to pay for fuel, their truck drivers, vehicle repairs, and more. For example, factoring companies buy invoices for freight that you’ve already delivered. In a nutshell, this is cash that is advanced to you based on your accounts receivables. Our sister company’s freight factoring services ensure steady cash flow so that you can keep your trucks rolling.
