Curri is a load platform that hires gig drivers using their own vehicles and also contracts carriers authorized for interstate or intrastate commerce. Loads run on cargo vans, sprinter vans, box trucks and hotshot trailers, with maximum loads from 1,500 pounds in a cargo van to 16,000 pounds on a hotshot trailer. Carriers need $750,000 in auto liability, or $300,000 if they run no vehicles over 10,000 pounds. The $100,000 cargo requirement applies unless Curri confirms Loss Waiver enrollment in writing.
- Best for
- Gig drivers and small carriers running vans, box trucks or hotshot trailers
Our take
Curri suits drivers and small carriers on the light end, whether they do gig work in their own vehicle or run an authorized carrier. The Loss Waiver Program can stand in for cargo coverage, but only at Curri's discretion and with its written confirmation.
Read the payment terms before your first load. Curri pays the accepted platform rate only once the sender pays, wants requested documents within 48 hours of delivery and can cut the rate when they're late.
If you factor, file a written Notice of Release with remittance instructions before you haul. A factor that goes to Curri directly for payment can get your agreement ended and your platform account deactivated.
Cons
- Anyone not required to carry workers' comp needs occupational accident coverage of at least $1 million per occurrence
- Vehicles over 10,000 pounds must follow all FMCSA safety regulations, even ones that wouldn't otherwise apply
- Cargo deductible can be at most $2,500

| Term | Curri | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Standard pay | Accepted platform rates, paid if the sender paysUnless you agree otherwise in writing, you are paid the accepted platform rate through normal platform processing. The broker has no payment responsibility unless the sender pays. Payment depends on the freight bill, the BOL, a clear delivery receipt or other supporting documents that satisfy the broker. Requested documents are due within 48 hours of delivery. Late documents can lead to a rate reduction, delay or liability for uncollected revenue. Offsets are allowed. Payment can be postponed over a potential or pending claim. Delivery evidence the broker requests must arrive within a reasonable time and no later than six months or payment is forfeited. A suit for an unpaid amount must be filed within 18 months of service or the claim is forfeited.
