FAQs

While a free load board might be a good place for a beginner, it’s like anything else: you get what you pay for. In general, free load boards turn up low-paying loads and they lack the technology you need to keep up with today’s fast-paced freight demands. Many free load boards don’t wipe old loads clean daily, so even if you find what looks to be a good load, it could already be booked by the time you research it. Your goal is to avoid this time-wasting approach and focus on how to find more available high-paying loads

Look for a load board that goes the extra mile to help you choose brokers to work with and other important information, like broker credit score, experience level, and how long it takes them to pay you.

Truckstop employs a whole team that checks every broker on the load board regularly, so broker data is relevant and up to date. The best load board lets you sort loads by rate, origin, and broker ratings. Some include heat maps and search options that serve up the best-paying loads.

The most innovative, established load boards help you find backhauls, post your truck and specialty so brokers can find you, and have an instant load-booking feature, just to name a few.

Top load boards such as Truckstop will also advise you which routes to take and which fuel stops have the best prices. It eliminates paperwork, which gets you out of the office and on the road where the money is.
