Central Dispatch
The largest auto-transport load board, with AI price guidance
About
Central Dispatch is the most-used load board in the US auto transport industry, connecting dealers, brokers and shippers with carriers. Beyond the marketplace, its Price Check Plus add-on uses AI-driven data to predict the optimal price for each load, and a Market Intelligence API feeds that pricing data into your own systems. Core plans start at $139.95/month per the company's pricing page. It does not handle payments — those are settled directly between shipper and carrier.
