Our exclusive, free load board for Apex Capital clients provides user-friendly searching, filtering, and sorting functionalities so you can customize finding the loads you want to haul.
How Do Load Boards Work?
Load boards connect freight brokers and shippers with carriers. Brokers and shippers post available freight with details such as equipment requirements, load origin and destination, and rates. Carriers then search load board listings using filters to find loads that match their criteria. The searchable database format makes it easy for carriers to find the right load quickly and efficiently, so they can get to hauling.
Broker & Shipper Credit Information
Another perk in finding a load to haul on NextLOAD is the Apex Capital blue chevron icon. As a leader in freight factoring, Apex has built relationships with brokers and shippers you might want to do business with. If you see that trademark symbol next to a load, that means Apex has a credit relationship with that broker or shipper.
