The load board for car hauling dispatchers: every carrier, one login.

What a dispatcher needs from a board

A dispatcher books loads for carriers, not for themselves. Every load goes out under the carrier's authority and insurance, is hauled by the carrier's driver and is invoiced in the carrier's name. So the board has to answer one question per carrier: which of these loads fits this carrier's trucks, lanes and costs? And it has to keep each carrier's loads, paperwork and money apart from the next one's.

How dispatchers work the loadez board

• Open it free. The board is at tools.loadez.ai/owner/load-board, no account needed. The broker's phone and email open after a free sign-up. Brokers and shippers post there free.
• One login, one carrier at a time. When a carrier accepts your agreement, it appears in your client switcher. Pick it, and the drivers, loads and paperwork on screen are that carrier's only, with the board read for that carrier's trucks.
• Loads scored for that carrier's trucks. When the carrier is on Growth or Pro, or in its first 30 days on loadez, each load gets a score out of 100 and a best-fit driver from that carrier's fleet. The score follows the carrier's plan, not yours.
• The money, when the carrier shares it. The estimated net, the margin and the cost breakdown, including what the driver is paid, show on your screen when the carrier grants "See load profitability" in your agreement. It is off by default. The rate is always there.
• Claims in the carrier's name. You claim with the carrier's driver, and messages to brokers go out under the carrier's name. The agreement sets the booking mode: "offer each load", where nothing reaches the broker until the carrier approves, or "book directly", pre-authorized.
• Paperwork from the driver's phone. The driver works in the phone browser at app.loadez.ai on any iPhone or Android, with nothing to install. Inspection photos, the BOL and the signature come back to the same load.

Your own desk has AI help as well. Agency Solo includes 300 AI actions a month for reading a load from a rate confirmation or a screenshot and drafting emails to brokers. Working a carrier's board uses that carrier's plan and its own actions.

Each carrier separate, each carrier in control

Every carrier you work for has its own rules, documents and books on loadez, and nothing crosses between them. What you may do for a carrier is written line by line into your agreement with it:

The carrier can pause or end your access at any moment. A carrier works with one dispatch agency at a time on loadez.

Your fee is a percentage of gross or a flat amount per load, written into the agreement. loadez records it as each load you booked is delivered and its paperwork approved. It is never taken out of the broker's payment: the broker pays the carrier the full rate, and the carrier pays you directly. The carrier's net on each load shows your fee as its own line, so the numbers a carrier sees already include you.

You work for each carrier, not for a pool of trucks. The software is built the same way.

Finding carriers to dispatch

Your clients are usually owner-operators and small fleets who would rather drive than sit on the phone. On loadez there are three ways to start working with one:

1. Invite a carrier you already know, by MC number, or by the owner's email if they are not on loadez yet. Accepting creates the carrier's free loadez account. Nothing of theirs is visible to you until they accept.
2. List your agency in Find a partner. Your listing says what you do: services, what your carriers haul, regions, languages, your fee range and whether you hold broker authority. Carrier owners read agency listings on their Find a partner screen, and visitors can read them before they sign up. Listing is optional and off until you turn it on.
3. Answer carriers that ask for a dispatcher. A carrier with operating authority on file, verified or in review, can switch on "open to a dispatcher". It then appears in your Find a partner list with what it says about itself, its FMCSA authority status and its USDOT number. "Offer to dispatch" sends your terms, and the owner accepts, counters or declines, up to three rounds.

The directory shows no ratings, fleet sizes or load volumes, because loadez does not hold them for a company that is not a client. In its own words, loadez "lists companies that chose to be listed. It does not vet, rank or recommend them." Before you sign anyone, check on FMCSA's record that the carrier's operating authority is active and its insurance is on file.

Dispatcher or broker: the FMCSA line

FMCSA set out who is a broker and who is a carrier's bona fide agent in guidance published on 16 June 2023 (88 FR 39368, docket FMCSA-2022-0134). A dispatcher who works for a carrier under a written agreement, does not solicit shippers for freight, takes no billing or pay from the broker or a factoring company, and stays out of the money between broker and carrier is generally the carrier's agent and needs no broker authority.

The same guidance lists signs that a dispatch service needs broker authority. The one that matters once you have several carriers is allocation of traffic: accepting a shipment that could be hauled by more than one of your carriers and choosing which one gets it (88 FR 39372). Taking money from the broker or a factoring company, or dealing with shippers directly, is on the list too. Brokering without authority can cost up to $10,000 per violation under 49 U.S.C. 14916(c).

loadez is software for carriers and dispatchers. It is not a broker, and it is set up for the agent model:

• The board scores loads for one carrier at a time, inside that carrier's account. It never ranks your carriers against a load.
• Find a partner lists companies, never freight, and never orders carriers for a load.
• The standard agreement on loadez says every load you look for under it is for that carrier alone.
• Your fee is settled between you and the carrier, outside the broker's payment.

How you run your business is still your call. Calling it a dispatch service does not change what the work is.

A plain-language summary, not legal advice. Read the guidance itself or ask a transportation attorney about your setup.

What it costs a dispatcher

• Looking at the board: free, with no account.
• Your agency account: free for one client carrier. Agency plans start at $49 a month: Agency Solo covers up to three client carriers and 300 AI actions a month on your desk.
• The carrier's plan decides what its board does. Free ($0, one driver) gives the board, dispatch and the driver app. Growth ($49 per driver a month, from 5 seats) adds the score and net profit on every load, live tracking and driver pay. A carrier new to loadez gets every feature for its first 30 days, with no card.

Full pricing. What dispatchers charge their carriers, and how to start, is in how to become a car hauling dispatcher. How the score adds up is in what a car haul load actually nets.

Common questions

What load board should a car hauling dispatcher use?

On loadez, dispatchers work from loadez's own car hauling load board, separate from every other board, with one login across every carrier they dispatch for. Each load is claimed in that carrier's name with its driver, and when the carrier is on Growth every load is scored for that carrier's own trucks.

Is there a free load board for dispatchers?

Yes. The loadez load board is free to open without an account at tools.loadez.ai/owner/load-board, and the broker's phone and email open after a free sign-up. A loadez agency account is free for one client carrier, and agency plans start at $49 a month.

How do car hauling dispatchers find loads?

They search load boards and work with the brokers their carriers haul for, booking every load in the carrier's name, under its authority and insurance, with its driver. On loadez a dispatcher works one carrier's board at a time, and on Growth that board ranks loads by their score for that carrier's own trucks.

How do I find carriers to dispatch?

Owner-operators and small fleets who would rather drive than book loads are the usual clients. On loadez you can invite a carrier by MC number or the owner's email, list your agency in Find a partner where carrier owners look, and send terms to carriers that switched on "open to a dispatcher"; nothing of a carrier's is visible to you until its owner accepts a written agreement.

Can a dispatcher work for several carriers without broker authority?

Under FMCSA's June 2023 guidance (88 FR 39368), a dispatcher who acts as each carrier's agent under a written agreement, is paid only by the carrier and stays out of the broker's money generally needs no broker authority. Accepting a load that could go to more than one of your carriers and choosing which one hauls it is allocation of traffic, which points to brokering; brokering without authority can cost up to $10,000 per violation under 49 U.S.C. 14916(c).

Can a carrier control what its dispatcher sees on loadez?

Yes. The carrier grants access line by line in the agreement: booking, broker messages and paperwork are on by default, while approving delivery paperwork, each load's net profit and the carrier's trucks are off unless the agreement grants them. The carrier can pause or end the dispatcher's access at any moment.
