What is Freight Factoring?
Freight factoring is a financing method in which a trucking company sells their accounts receivable at a discount to a third-party funding source to increase cash flow. In other words, Love’s Financial buys invoices for the loads you’ve already delivered then collects from your customer.

Types of Freight Factoring
Whether you’ve just started your own trucking company or have been in the business for a decade, it’s important to consider the different types of freight factoring to determine what is best for your business.
Non-Recourse Freight Factoring
Non-recourse factoring is a type of factoring facility in which the factor assumes the risk of non-payment if the customer does not pay the invoice due to an insolvency or a credit event, even if bankruptcy is not filed. When factoring with Love’s Financial, once we purchase your freight bills, you have no further liability. We will not charge them back to you in the event of non-payment, as long as the non-payment is not from a claim, dispute or short pay.
Who Should Use Non-Recourse Factoring?
- Startup trucking companies or established trucking companies that need protection from invoices being charged back
- Hauling mostly for freight brokers and/or finding loads off load boards
- Need full advance on invoice less the factoring rate

Recourse Freight Factoring
With recourse factoring the trucking company retains liability for the ultimate collectability of the factored invoice. As this carries less risk to the factor, recourse factoring is generally available at a lower discount rate. The factor purchases the freight invoice from the trucking company, but it may become uncollectible for any number of reasons (e.g. file bankruptcy, go out of business, claim/dispute on the load, etc.) which may result in a “charge back” to the trucking company.
