How a Load Board Helps Truckers Find Great Loads
Truckers need loads to stay in business. They need loads that pay well from trustworthy brokers and shippers. They also need loads that are easy to find.
Load boards are the quickest and most widely accessible way to find truck loads. Even truckers lucky enough to run dedicated lanes or haul under contracts most likely began those relationships by finding that first load on a load board.
A load board offers truckers the essentials – reliable loads that are easy to find. But just as important for truckers is knowing they will get paid. They want proof that the broker or shipper is trustworthy. Those ingredients help truckers establish a good relationship with that broker or shipper they initially haul a load for. The hope is that relationship will lead to a dedicated lane.
Filter to Save Time and Money
It all starts with a load board. NextLOAD.com, the exclusive and free load board for clients of freight factoring leader Apex Capital, is a great place for truckers to find loads. Load boards, like NextLOAD, list available loads from companies that need freight hauled. But that list can be pages long. In trucking, time is money. So, creating a variety of filters for truckers to find the exact load they need is a necessity. NextLOAD gives truckers plenty of search options:
- Weight – Enter minimum and/or maximum weight
- Length – Enter minimum and/or maximum equipment length
- Distance – Enter minimum and/or maximum distance you want to travel
- Minimum rate – Enter minimum dollar amount you need to haul a load
- Keywords – Enter “hotshot,” “tarps,” “chains,” etc. in “Comment Includes” field
- Origin – Enter where you are starting the haul
- Radius – Search for a load location around your origin or destination
- Destination – Enter where you want to finish the haul
- Equipment – Enter your equipment such as dry van, reefer, flatbed
- Company type – Use drop-down menu to search for loads from brokers, shippers, 3PLs
Trustworthy Loads and High-Powered Partnerships
Another NextLOAD perk is the Apex Capital blue chevron icon. If you see that trademark symbol next to a load, that means Apex has a credit relationship with that broker or shipper. How’s that for load trustworthiness?
Plus, NextLOAD has established partnerships with Transport Pro, Aljex, AscendTMS, McLeod Software, 3PL, and more. This means NextLOAD can offer quality loads for truckers every day.
