From the posted rate to what the truck keeps
A rate per loaded mile leaves out the empty miles to the pickup, fuel at today's price, the driver's pay and the cost of the payment terms. The Loadez load board works all of that out on every load, for your own truck, before you call the broker. Check one load with the calculator, or read how to price a load.
