WHAT IS TRUCKING FACTORING

Using a Trucking Factoring Company

Using a trucking factoring company is basically a quick way to get cash from your receivables. Trucking factoring is not a loan. When you give your customers an invoice, they usually have 30 days to pay you back.

Invoice factoring companies will purchase those invoices and give you the bulk of the cash up front, sometimes within 24 hours, and collect the payments from your customers themselves. Once the invoices are paid in full, you’ll get the balance left over, minus a small fee. Trucking factoring doesn't require debt.


What Makes Us Different

OVER 40 RELIABLE YEARS FACTORING INVOICES FOR COMPANIES NATIONWIDE

Only a handful of trucking factoring companies can say that.



Even fewer can say a majority of their new trucking factoring business comes from client referrals. Our clients are happy! We give you much more than just funding. We also give you back your time.

Need Cash Today For Your Company

We know that more and more these days customers are stretching payments, some because they can, others because they are struggling. And you’re not too happy about it because you also have bills to pay. Like most trucking fleet owners, you probably first went to a bank for help. Only to find the process too slow and complicated.

So instead of focusing on other crucial aspects of your trucking company, you're stuck chasing down your customers for payment. We know that’s a time wasting and very frustrating process.

Meanwhile you have drivers and staff to pay, as well as fuel, truck payments, tires, repairs, truck maintenance, insurance and many other expenses to keep your trucking business going. You are in a money-centric business. Everything is money.

Boost Revenues For Your Trucking Company

  • Are you stuck taking loads with routes that your drivers don’t like because you don’t have cash?
  • Have you ever missed or avoided a good load your driver would have preferred but you were forced to take a less desirable route because of the payment terms?
  • Are you uncomfortable with taking on new customers and the risk of not getting paid?

If your answer is yes then our unique factoring programs definitely can help you take these loads.

By factoring with us we will not only credit clear customers for you, we will also pay you right away. Your options for new customers, loads and routes, will open exponentially. By having so many more load options you have a better chance of keeping your drivers happy too.

With our freight factoring company services, you can now confidently ask your customers for more business. Knowing you have a source of reliable cash flow, you may never have to turn away a good new load.

With a dependable source of funding you now have the time and cash to redirect your efforts to other crucial business areas that can help your business grow. Cash on hand can help you with:

  • Driver’s Retention:
    A good driver will make money for you and with a bad one you end up spinning your wheels. When you find good drivers, factoring can help you have what it takes to keep them--such as offer better routes, benefits and bonuses.
  • Purchase fuel and tires in bulk for greater savings.
  • When it comes to unexpected repairs and maintenance, you can get back on the road more quickly.  An idle truck can be more expensive than the costs of its repair.

best freight factoring companies We Care About Your Trucking Company

We have your company's best interests and success in mind. Other trucking factoring companies may not be in it for the long haul and every step of your company's journey. For example, some trucking factoring companies will continue to purchase your freight bills because they don’t have the ability to see trouble ahead. You could end up buying back freight bills from customers who could have been avoided in the first place.

We operate differently than the others. Our purpose is to build a strong relationship with you and protect your company against risky customers, keeping your trucking business profitable.

Protect Your Trucking Company From Taking Losses

We have credit experts and current payment data to spot early payment trends to help protect your company from taking losses on customers who may be heading into bankruptcy or brokers who can simply disappear overnight. Other trucking factoring companies may not monitor these situations as carefully to protect you.

We Fund More than Long Haul Over the Road Carriers

We have helped a wide range of trucking companies including intermodal and dump trucks. So long as your customer’s are creditworthy, we can fund bills to brokers, shippers, steamship lines, freight forwarders, construction companies and more.

“They Really Understand”

“I made the mistake of not credit checking a load and by the time I turned it into my factor (not OCC) the brokerage was out of business. My factor (not OCC) understandably wouldn’t fund it so I was left not knowing what to do.

I turned to my friend Mike for advice and he referred me to his factor, Maria at OCC. Maria reviewed my paperwork and explained step by step what I needed to do including outlining who to contact, what numbers to reference and what I needed to ask.

She carefully explained the pros and cons of different options such as collecting on a bond or pursuing collections and how that might affect my relationship with the shipper and receiver moving forward. I really appreciated Maria taking the time to do that when I wasn’t even her client. I could see that they really care and understand how big a $4,500 loss is to any trucking company.”

How Factoring Works

So how does our trucking factoring company program work? Unlike a bank we focus on the strength of your customer's credit and their ability to pay their bills, not yours. We charge a small fee for our factoring service, but there’s no debt and no interest. The factoring process is online and designed to be as easy as possible so that your business can thrive.

Once you are setup for factoring you get funded in 3 easy steps. First, you deliver the load. Next, you send us your invoice, bill of lading and rate confirmation. Upon verification your freight bill proceeds are sent to you, typically within 24 hours for returning customers. We’ll send your freight bill to your customer as well as collect the payment from your customer according to the payment terms such as 30 days.

We also provide you with free back-office support and manage your collections on freight bills that you factored for your trucking company. Your company gets online access to lookup your customer's payments. You know the status of every freight bill at the click of a mouse. That’s it!

“We’ve been with OCC since 2003. From the initial contact and interaction with Bob in Sales, our experience with OCC has been genuine and honest. Bob was true to his word. What he sold is what came to fruition. It was like nothing we had ever experienced before. OCC provides us with peace of mind in knowing that we have daily cash flow for our business.

We submit invoices daily using the scanning program, which we find to be very quick and easy to use, and know with confidence when we submit invoices that OCC will provide the funding that same day. Maria, Isabel, Leslie, Tiffany and everyone in Operations has been fantastic to work with. I know when I call, they are going to answer and address my needs immediately. They customized their process to fit our needs, and that’s so valuable to us.

OCC is truly a godsend to our business. I am tickled to be able to brag about OCC and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an honest factoring partner they can rely on.”

I have a UCC Filing against my company. Can you help me?

Yes, if the UCC holds your accounts receivable as collateral we will need the lender to subordinate or terminate to allow for factoring since factoring requires a first position UCC on your accounts receivable. We can help you navigate that process.

Back to the Top

Are there any minimums? What kind of agreement do I need to sign?

We have no minimums. As a matter of fact, you can pick and choose which invoices you want us to help you with. And, we offer agreements starting as short as 90 days. You select which invoices you would like to submit for funding as frequently as you need. Our factoring program is like carrying a credit card in your pocket. You carry it to use when you need it. Call us now and let’s get started today.

Can I know what your fees and rates are up front?

Sure! Unlike most companies out there, we are totally transparent about our fees and rates up front. Our trucking factoring rates are among the most competitive in the industry and vary depending on how many trucks you are running, volume to factor, type of loads and any risk associated with your customer base. Our services include funding by ACH, wire transfer and electronic submission of invoices. Each of these options have nominal transaction charges associated and are always clearly stated up front in the factoring proposal. Unlike the others we do not charge you any set up costs. Nor do we charge you a monthly minimum fee or any other types of fees that the others charge.

Back to the Top

How much of my load will I receive up front, and how soon will I get the money?

Most factoring companies have advance rates that run from 70% to 90%. Our advanced rates are much higher—from 90% up to a full advance with no reserve held back. Once your customer pays the invoice, any reserve portion if applicable is refunded to you less the factoring fee. Your funds are deposited directly into your business checking account. It’s simple. It’s easy. It’s fast.

How will you work with my customers to collect on the invoices?

OCC interacts professionally at all times with your customers as we know your customer relationships are the lifeblood of your company. OCC should not be confused with a collection agency. OCC places calls on your behalf to check on payment status, we make note of check dates which we can share with you as well as pass along any messages to you. Essentially, OCC becomes your Credit and Collections Department for factored invoices which frees up your time and your staff’s time to do other more productive things.

Will I be able to keep track of collections from my end?

Yes! You’ll have online access to aging reports, and are kept abreast of any collection issues so there are no surprises.
