MIDLOTHIAN, Va., January 26, 2012: Internet load board company Getloaded employees donate their time to Homeward’s Point in Time Count, a twice-yearly study designed to accurately count the Richmond region’s homeless individuals and families.

“After volunteering as navigators with Project Homeless Connect last November, our employees were eager to stay involved with Homeward and decided as a team to sign up for the Winter 2012 Point in Time Count.”,” said Fergus Caldicott, general manager at Getloaded.

From Ice Road Truckers to Shipping Wars, trucking companies seem to be a new, popular source of reality television entertainment. And now, if you’ve ever wondered how your truck was manufactured, the National Geographic Channel’s Ultimate Factories has just the episode for you: On January 14, they featured an in-depth, hour-long look at how Mack trucks are made. 

Here’s some good news to start the year off with truckers: the numbers are in, and 2011 closed with some great developments for trucking companies — and the economy at large. 

On January 6, 2012, the Labor Department announced that the economy added 200,000 jobs in December 2011, and of those, 5,100 were in for-hire trucking. As a result, there were 40,100 more trucking jobs than the same time last year. 

As our members are well aware by now, at Getloaded, we’re constantly looking for ways to simplify and improve their freight matching experience. In 2011 alone, we’ve launched new member and public sites, created the industry’s only Spanish-language load board and upgraded our servers to provide blindingly fast searches. Well, we’re showing our commitment to ease again with the release of new technology updates that bring you the results you need — faster than ever before.
