Free
Load Board - www.trulos.com
Companies
like Trulos Transportation, www.trulos.com,
offer free load boards for users. The biggest benefit is that
they are free and usually have loads posted on them from sources
that you don't find in paid load boards. They are a great
resource for drivers and trucking companies who need to find
freight and may not have access to a paid load board. It is
also a good starting place for new trucking companies that
want to see what freight is available.
Trulos
Transportation is our favorite service because there is
no sign up to view loads. Simply go to the page and you get
to see the loads and find the call the number. Most of the
others make you sign up to view the freight.
Do paid
load boards have better Freight - Not necessarily. They may
have more freight but the cost of freight is determined by
the carriers, origin and destination. Our experience is that
the free load board have both high and low paying loads available
but the paid load boards just have more freight available.
Both types of load board service are good ways to get your
truck moving.

Express and TruckersEdge
This is
probably the best service that we have seen if you are going
to pay for a load board. they are the original load board
that started out in truck stops advertising before the internet
was popular. They still have the terminals in the truckstops
and they probably have the most loads available. They have
very goo tools to search and monitor when loads become available.
For brokers they have some great tools for managing the carrier
base and let you track carriers in the system.
