Offers new service to find the most profitable truck lanes MIDLOTHIAN, Va., January 6, 2009 – Getloaded.com kicks off the New Year with the launch of their “Rate Index” feature, allowing transportation companies and truckers to measure the profitability of truck lanes. “Rate Index” will track critical data of more than 12 million truckload lanes for 1,200 major North American market areas. The new tool from Getloaded.com, which launched January 1, 2009, comes at the perfect time for freight carriers as the industry looks for a competitive edge during recessionary times. “Rate Index” breaks down the most profitable truckload lanes by analyzing the average rate per mile, minimum rate per mile, maximum rate per mile, average fuel surcharge per mile and average accessorial charges. The feature helps transportation professionals target where they want to haul freight based on the money generated by certain routes, allowing them to negotiate better rates to maximize their profits. “For the past nine years, we have provided easy access to information on Getloaded.com,” said Bryan Jones, President of Getloaded.com. “As we move forward, we want to empower our members by giving them more tools. From all indications so far, Rate Index will be a very popular tool with our members. “In these tough economic times, it is vital for both carriers and brokers to have as much information as possible to negotiate better prices. Rate Index gives them the ability to have the average rate in mind prior to getting to the table.” For additional information about Getloaded.com visit www.Getloaded.com.
