What Kraken Logistics does

Transport brokerage for dealers and individuals, and wholesale trade sourcing for franchise stores.

Line one

Vehicle transport brokerage

Kraken Logistics arranges vehicle transport. When you book a move with us, we place that vehicle with a licensed motor carrier from our network, coordinate pickup and delivery windows, and manage the shipment until the unit is delivered and signed for.

The broker role, stated plainly: Kraken Logistics is a licensed property broker. We arrange and coordinate transport — we do not operate our own trucks, and the drivers who carry your vehicle are employed by the motor carrier, not by us. Cargo insurance covering the vehicle in transit is carried by that motor carrier, and we verify it is active before dispatch.

What we move

  • New and used vehicles for franchise and independent dealerships
  • Personal vehicles for individuals relocating, buying, or selling out of state
  • Auction purchases and off-lease units
  • Single vehicles through full multi-car loads

Open and enclosed

Open transport is the standard and the most economical option for most vehicles. Enclosed transport is available where the unit warrants it — exotics, classics, low-mileage collector cars, or anything you would rather not have exposed to road debris and weather.

Before a carrier is dispatched

  • Operating authority confirmed as active with FMCSA
  • Cargo and liability insurance confirmed in force
  • Pickup and delivery windows agreed in writing
  • Condition documented at pickup and again at delivery
Line two

Wholesale dealer trades & vehicle allocation

The second half of the business is inventory. Franchise dealers are frequently short the exact unit a customer wants and long on something that is not turning. We work both sides of that.

Sourcing

We locate new units at other franchise stores nationwide by year, model, trim, drivetrain, colour and option package, then handle the dealer-to-dealer trade — the negotiation, the paperwork, and the transport, on one ticket.

Moving aged inventory

Stock that has sat on your lot for months is often in demand somewhere else. We find the store that wants it, structure the trade, and move it. You free up floor plan; they get a unit that sells in their market.

Why dealers use a third party for this

  • Reach beyond the stores your people already know
  • Someone else makes the calls and chases the paperwork
  • Transport arranged as part of the same transaction, not a separate scramble
  • A specific spec located without waiting on an allocation cycle

Year, model, origin and destination is enough to start.
