First of all you should know there are certain regulations around this. Trucking is a highly regulated industry. In terms of government regulation, it honestly is one of the less insanely regulated industries though in my opinion. However the regulations do keep it stuck way in the past.

I don't know that the current regulations would prevent this from being done but there are regulations to be aware of in the US. I don't know but many rules around trucking are very similar in the US and Canada.

I'm not an owner operator so I've never worked the load boards or worked with a brokerage as an owner operator contracting freight.

Basically, in my understanding, as a contractor/driver, you will sign on to a load board and see dates, origins, destinations, freight classification, weight, possibly a description, and some indication of type of equipment needed and possibly special instructions such as pickup hours, securement, equipment, or temperature instructions. I think usually there is a price and you can apply to get the load. Or you can make an offer. Brokers are famous for playing games putting the same load out multiple times to make sure they get it covered and then again to make sure they get it cheaper canceling the more expensive one.

Van and reefer loads are usually pretty straightforward and account for a large percentage of uncontracted freight. Open deck trailers can be more complex, oversize can be very complex.

Lots of owner operators work direct with brokers who have contracts to broker loads to drivers. They may also bear a certain amount of legal responsibility and responsibility for checking on the load and advising as to its status.

They are several major brokers and a lot of small ones.

Uber freight is a pretty big player in the industry now too.

Brokers charge a percentage of the load, and often provide very little by way of actual service, so there is a lot of money on the table.

Owner operators will tell you to never trust a broker, but if you do find one you like, to never let them go.

I don't think I understand the question.
