What is the Drivershare Network?
The Relay Drivershare Network is an exclusive platform of carriers who share a quality pool of drivers to keep their trucks rolling. Each carrier who joins the network can instantly book a driver and create their own private driver pools of 2-3 drivers per truck you run on the network. As part of the Relay Network, every driver and carrier is pre-vetted which means you only do runs and work with high quality drivers with top-notch skills.
How does insurance work?
The first time you use a driver, Relay provides optional insurance to cover your truck and cargo. If you like working with the driver and decide you want to continue using the same driver, then you simply add him to your policy. We make it super easy to do with just the tap of a button from your Relay app.
Who takes care of DOT background checks, drug testing, compliance, and driver payments?
Relay saves you countless hours by taking care of all pre-vetting, background, and DOT requirements for onboarding drivers and ensures they are all enrolled in a drug consortium program. In addtion, Relay takes care of all payroll payments to the drivers and the neccesary IRS filings.

Can I hire drivers directly to use outside of the Relay Network?

You'll find that having a pool of 2-3 drivers for each of your trucks is a much more profitable way to operate your business than the old way of trying to hire one driver for one truck.

As a carrier member of the Relay Network, you're always guaranteed a driver for your trucks!
You're most likely use to hiring one driver for each of your trucks and then hope it works out.
Here's why that doesn't work anymore and you lose $10,000s every year...
Whenever you have just one driver for your truck, then your business becomes entirely dependent on that driver(s). Your truck only works when your driver can or wants to work.
For example; What happens with your truck when your driver is on his home time? It sits and you lose revenue. What happens with your truck when your driver has to do a DOT mandatory 34-hour reset? It sits, you lose revenue and it costs you more money as the driver keeps the engine running burning fuel to stay warm or cool the whole time.
Your truck ends up sitting more than its rolling!
Between the 4- 8 weeks of downtime you experience every time you fire a driver or they quit, the driver's home and vacation time, HOS limitations, your truck sits more than it rolls. In the type of freight and trucking market today, that's a recipe for poor profits and in the worst case lead to bankruptcy.
Relay is the only platform that solves this issue because you can use multiple drivers for each of your trucks. As soon as one driver finishes a trip and goes on home time, you can have another driver booked who hops in the truck and takes it right back out to keep it rolling. If your permanent driver quits, then you simply book a driver instantly from the Relay network and have your truck rolling same day. No matter what, as long as you have a truck and a load, you're guaranteed you'll always have a driver available.
Relay takes away the hassle of trying to manage a fleet of drivers and stay compliant.
The following is included as part of your Relay Membership:
Driver Payroll
Relay takes care of all payments to drivers for you. There is no need for you to manage payroll, tax filings, etc. Use our smart pay rate tool to help you set rates for each run so you never over pay drivers again.
You also have the option to save your company cashflow by adding a credit card to your account for driver payments. This way, you can pay your credit card once a month instead of paying from your bank account every week. This frees up your cashflow and you can get cashback rewards saving you even more.
Your drivers get paid through their app safely and securely everytime where they can choose instant pay or direct deposit to their account.
DOT Random Drug Testing
Relay ensures all drivers are pre-drug tested and enrolled in a random drug test consortium on behalf of your company at no additional cost.
MVR checks and monitoring, Employment history, and more.
Continous MVR Monitoring
Relay ensure all drivers stay qualified to drive through our MVR monitoring program. If any new traffic convictions or suspensions show up on a driver's license we immediately review and determine if they are able to stay on the Relay network. We have stricter standards than most insurance carriers for drivers. Having a good driving record is a must.
Background and History
Drivers must have a minimum of 2 years experience. We verify every driver's application, history, and use our smart algorithm to look at over 100+ data points to determine if the driver is a good fit considering their safety, performance, professionalism, personality, attitude, and more.
Know when the driver leaves their house
Being on-time is critical in trucking. With Relay, you'll get a notification as soon as your driver leaves their house so you know their on-time, everytime.
Get real-time updates for Pre-trip inspections
The Relay app guarantees drivers do a proper pre-trip inspection every time on your truck. The driver will use the app to document the pre-trip with pictures and video highlighting any issues so you don't get surprise breakdowns or DOT inspection violations.
View BOLs as soon as the driver gets them
No more hounding drivers for pictures of the BOL. Drivers use the app to upload the BOL at each stop so you can view them in real-time right from your app or web portal.
Tracking updates
Always know where your driver is and if they are on track with real-time tracking and alerts if delays occur at shippers or recievers.
