What We Move

Full-Truckload Freight, Three Ways

Flatbed first, dry van and reefer right behind it — matched with vetted carriers across the continental USA.

Flatbed

Steel, machinery, lumber, building materials, and oversized loads. Fifteen years around flatbed freight means we know how it should be tarped, strapped, and hauled — and we hold carriers to it.

Dry Van

Palletized freight, boxed shipments, and general commodities — coast to coast. The workhorse of American freight, handled with carriers whose authority and insurance actually check out.

Reefer

Produce, food-grade, and other temperature-sensitive loads. When your freight has to stay cold from dock to dock, the carrier's reefer unit and track record both get checked before tender.

Load Planning

One load or ongoing volume — we help match your freight with the right equipment and carrier, and keep the conversation straight the whole way.

Carrier Vetting

Authority, insurance certificates, and FMCSA safety record — checked before your freight is tendered, not after something goes wrong.

Direct Communication

No runaround, no ticket queue. You deal directly with the person who knows your load — call (479) 351-0393.

How It Works

From Quote to Delivered — No Mystery

A freight broker shouldn't be a black box. Here's exactly what happens when you hand BKE a load.

1

Tell Us the Load

Origin, destination, cargo, weight, equipment, and pickup timing — by form, phone, or email. You'll get a real quote from a real person, not an algorithm's guess.

2

We Vet & Match a Carrier

We check the carrier's authority, insurance, and safety record before your freight is tendered. The rate you agree to is the rate — no surprise accessorials invented after the fact.

3

Tracked to the Dock

Pickup confirmation, in-transit updates, and delivery confirmation with paperwork. If anything changes, you hear it from us first — that's the whole point of a broker.

Why BKE

Fifteen Years in a Truck Before a Single Load Was Brokered

We're a newer brokerage and we don't pretend otherwise. What you get is experience from the driver's seat — and the attention only a lean operation can give your freight.

Built From the Driver's Seat

Fifteen years in trucking before brokering a single load. We know what a good carrier looks like — and what a bad one costs you — because we've been on that side of the deal.

You Talk to the Owner

No account managers, no hold music, no "let me check with the team." The person who prices your load is the person who covers it and answers when you call.

Legit, and Verifiable

MC# 1588065, USDOT# 4141583, surety bond on file. Don't take our word for it — look BKE Logistics up on FMCSA SAFER before you ever give us a load. And read how we vet every carrier before your freight moves.

Straight Answers

If we can't cover your load right, we'll say so and tell you why. No overpromising, no ghosting, no "the truck broke down" stories invented at 4pm on pickup day.

Freight Broker FAQ

The things shippers actually ask before working with a broker — answered without the sales spin.

Is BKE Logistics a licensed freight broker?
Yes. BKE Logistics LLC operates under MC# 1588065 and USDOT# 4141583 with a surety bond on file, and has been brokering freight since September 2023. You can verify our authority anytime on FMCSA SAFER — we'd rather you check than take our word for it.
What kind of freight does BKE move?
Full truckload only — flatbed (steel, machinery, lumber, oversized), dry van (palletized and general freight), and reefer (temperature-controlled) across the continental United States.
How do I get a freight quote?
Use the quote form on this page, call (479) 351-0393, or email harveyr@bkelogistics.com. Have your origin, destination, cargo type, weight, equipment, and pickup timing ready — the more we know, the faster and sharper the quote.
How does BKE vet its carriers?
Before a load is tendered we check the carrier's operating authority and authority history, verified insurance, FMCSA safety rating and data, roadside inspection history, and carrier identity — with hard stops that never get waived. The full standard is published at How BKE Vets Carriers. If a carrier doesn't check out, they don't haul the load — simple as that.
Do you handle LTL or expedited freight?
Our focus is full truckload. If your shipment is less than a truckload or needs expedited service, give us a call — if it's not a fit, we'll tell you straight and point you in the right direction instead of taking a load we shouldn't.
Who will I actually talk to at BKE?
The person handling your freight. BKE was built by someone with 15 years in trucking — when you call, you're talking to the decision maker, not a call center reading a script.
