Between a new public site, member site and Spanish load board, 2011 has been a big year at Getloaded. And now, we’re happy to introduce our members to a new tool that makes finding freight on Getloaded even easier and more efficient than ever before: Match My Trucks!
Whether using our iPhone app or finding loads on a laptop, many Getloaded members rely on our Internet load board every day, no matter their location. But we also understand that sometimes you can’t — or don’t want to — work online, so we offer a dedicated Customer Support Call Center for all Getloaded members.
Ever since the FMCSA first announced they were updating their safety regulation program through CSA 2010, we at Getloaded have worked hard to help our members stay on top of the program’s developments. Now that the program is live, we believe understanding the Safety Management Scores (SMS) is crucial for ensuring clarity in all of your freight matching — and our SMS module gives you up-to-date information, when you need it.
These days, countless analysts are working to understand exactly where the U.S. economy stands — and whether another recession is on the horizon. Because the levels at which truckers move freight can signal our economy’s health, analysts frequently study our industry for their projections, which accounts for five percent of the GDP.
Last time in our site feature blog, we covered Rate Index, an exclusive tool for determining the market rate on any given lane. And we figured, once you have the necessary information to price a lane, isn’t it time to start using them? So, in today’s feature we’re sharing tips and guidance for using Lanes to find freight.
At Getloaded, we appreciate every one of our members — and we want to ensure you are getting the most value from your membership. So, over the next few months we will be highlighting some of our special features that connect trucking companies to the information and services they need to simply and efficiently maximize business profits.
When you’re moving freight for long hours (and days and weeks) at a time, any ounce of entertainment is always helpful for staying focused. And since you need to keep your eyes on the road, finding ways to safely entertain yourself can be challenging. Fortunately, a number of radio stations and/or shows understand the time truckers spend on the road, so we decided to compile some of these options and share a list of radio options created just for you.
