India-to-U.S. import freight

Need U.S. trucking for freight arriving from India?

Indian exporters moving textiles, machinery, fabricated products or consumer goods to U.S. recipients may need inland transportation after a shipment arrives at the American port. The Driver Link focuses on a direct relationship between the business that controls the freight and the trucking carrier that can move it.

Direct shippers and manufacturers must complete business verification before posting. Carrier eligibility and availability vary. The Driver Link is not a freight broker or an ocean shipping line.

An option for Indian manufacturers with U.S. buyers

Registration for direct cargo owners

Eligible Indian manufacturers and shippers may apply for business verification. Approved direct shippers can post loads without a shipper subscription.

Freight requirements in one posting

Provide U.S. pickup and destination details, equipment type, cargo weight, rate and the timing of customs and terminal release.

Choose an eligible U.S. carrier directly

Qualified carriers may request the load. The shipper who controls the U.S. inland leg decides how to negotiate and book transportation without a freight broker intermediary.

Questions shippers often ask

Does the platform provide ocean shipping from India?

No. The Driver Link focuses on inland U.S. truck transportation rather than ocean booking.

Who should register?

The manufacturer, direct shipper, or entity that is responsible for and authorized to arrange inland trucking.

Are customs and terminal fees included?

Not by the platform. Those arrangements must be confirmed independently with relevant service providers.
