Perfect for
LDi serves two primary audiences: shippers who need reliable freight transportation and experienced freight brokers looking to operate independently.
- Manufacturers, distributors, and supply chain teams that need dependable truckload, LTL, intermodal, or specialized freight services across North America
- Companies shipping food and beverage, building materials, heavy machinery, and other goods that require diverse equipment options
- Experienced freight brokers with an existing book of business (typically over $1M in annual revenue) who want to transition to independent 1099 agent status while retaining back-office support and technology infrastructure
- Businesses looking for cost-effective alternatives to full truckload, including partial truckload and intermodal options for shipments over 1,000 miles
Key strengths
100% agent-based model with no internal sales team, meaning agents never compete with the company for customers
Access to 50,000+ qualified carriers across a wide range of equipment types including specialized options like Heavy Haul, RGN, and Over Dimensional
Proprietary technology platform (LDI Freight 5.0 and LDI AgentMate) available on iOS and Android for mobile freight management
Comprehensive back-office support covering invoicing, collections, credit checks, carrier payments, and compliance so agents and shippers can focus on their core business
Strong intermodal capabilities with Tier 1 rail partnerships, offering 10-25% savings over full truckload on long-haul routes
Considerations
Agent program requires existing book of business and at least six months of freight brokerage experience; not suitable for newcomers to the industry
Non-asset-based model means LDi does not own trucks or warehouses, relying entirely on carrier partners for capacity
Primarily focused on freight brokerage and transportation management rather than warehousing, fulfillment, or last-mile delivery services
No published pricing or rate transparency on the website; all quotes require direct engagement with an agent
About Logistic Dynamics
Logistic Dynamics, commonly known as LDi, is a non-asset-based third-party logistics provider founded in 2003 and headquartered in Buffalo, NY. The company operates a distinctive 100% agent-based model, meaning every dollar of revenue comes from its network of independent freight agents rather than an internal sales team. LDi supports more than 100 freight brokerage centers across the United States, connecting shippers with reliable capacity through experienced agents who bring their own books of business and deep carrier relationships.
LDi offers a comprehensive range of freight services including full truckload (Dry Van, Flatbed, Step Deck, Temperature-Controlled, Expedited, Auto Transport, Heavy Haul, Over Dimensional, RGN, Lowboy, and Double Drop), less-than-truckload (LTL), partial truckload, intermodal, air, and ocean shipping. The company provides access to over 50,000 qualified carriers and posts more than 5,000 loads per week on its load board. For intermodal shipments, LDi maintains strong Tier 1 rail partnerships and offers door-to-door service, with customers often saving 10 to 25 percent by converting full truckload to intermodal.
What sets LDi apart is its agent-centric infrastructure. The company provides proprietary technology tools including LDI Freight 5.0 and LDI AgentMate (available on iOS and Android), along with comprehensive back-office support covering invoicing, collections, credit checks, risk management, carrier payments, and compliance. LDi is a privately owned company that rewards agents with competitive commission splits and upfront incentives based on their book of business. The company is a member of industry associations including NASTC, TIA, IANA, and the EPA SmartWay program.
