Truckers who have their own trucks face
a huge monetary loss if they don’t get freight loads, their trucks remain idle
(i.e. not in a running condition) or driven empty.
So it is vital to locate a freight load
close to the last load dropped location. Online load board makes it easier to
find out freight loads and freight capacity for truckers/carriers and make the
maximum use of their haulage efficiency. Here all the loads are updated on day
by day basis.
Online freight load
boards are the best places to match loads for truckers and also facilitate truckers
to organize each job directly with the company. Companies that are in search
for trucking services also try to find load boards with quick turnover.
Now-a-days, a trucker/carrier can access freight load boards
through the Internet. All the load boards are exhibited on truckstop monitors.
Load boards are also termed as Load Matching Sites, Freight Boards, and Freight
Matching Services.
Truckers
have to pay minimum monthly charge that may differ from $30 to $45 to get
access on the load board for obtaining loads on 24 hours a day. Active online
load boards don’t allow load requests for more than 24 hours. Before
registering and disbursing a monthly fee to load boards, a trucker/carrier
should make sure that the load board is providing free demos facilities to find
loads easily.
User accounts are activated once the
payments are received. After that users can get online access to a safe site
and get the ability for observing accessible freight offers and listing their
capacity. All ground carriers should contain a MC and/or DOT registration. Any infringement
may lead to the cancellation of account and the trucker/carrier being removed
from the site.
At the time of finding freight loads, truckers must always
search for fast turnover in job postings obtainable in the load board.
In
few cases load boards also perform in reverse, facilitating the posting of accessible
trucks to be searched by freight load brokers to move their available loads.
Through a reverse load board a trucker/carrier can post their availability and
trucking capabilities, allowing companies and brokers to easily discover them.
