Spot Buy Truckload

Our marketplace will blend the client’s current service providers with a much broader network of service providers allowing them to always select the best option!

Where We Excel

Are you tired of managing your truckload business through a complex RFP process? Are you using Excel or Outlook to manage carrier bids? Are your facilities across the nation handling RFPs haphazardly creating extra costs?

A single carrier can’t handle 100% of a client’s truckload. That’s the power of Ascent’s web-based Truckload Bid Board. It is an easy-to-use, real-time system to help you streamline and uncomplicate truckload bids, allowing you to confidently make shipping decisions based on market rates.
