One of the key features of FreightExchange is the ability for customers to bring their own carrier accounts to the platform. If you have an existing account and rates with Flex Transport, you can easily bring your own accounts across to FreightExchange to receive quotes, print labels and book and track shipments along side our other broker carriers.
