OPINION

SHORT, Judge.

On appeal from separate grants of summary judgment, United Shipping Company, Inc. (U.S.C.) argues the trial court erred in (1) concluding it had a contract carrier relationship with Tucker Company; and (2) holding neither Tucker nor National Automotive & Rubber Marketing, Inc. (N.A.R.M.) were responsible for freight undercharges because both companies were transportation brokers; and (3) failing to hold both brokers have waived their rate reasonableness defenses. We disagree and affirm as to Tucker, but remand the N.A.R.M. action for resolution of a material issue of fact.
