Axle Logistics is a truck broker that onboards carriers through Highway from its carrier page. It pays within 28 days, or within 48 hours of receiving your invoice through quick pay, and it offers cash advances. Its terms set a $100,000 cargo minimum unless Axle agrees otherwise in writing.

Carriers on Highway who want quick pay within 48 hours

Our take

Fast quick pay is the reason to set up with Axle, especially if your Highway profile is already current. Its pages don't list an authority age or auto liability minimum, so get both from Axle's carrier team before your first load.

Pros

  • Quick pay lands within days of invoicing
  • Cash advances are available

Cons

  • The quick pay fee isn't listed on its pages
