How Continuous Haul Works
1. Destination-Based Matching
Brokers can use the Continuous Haul tab on the Load Details Page to view loads that:
✔ Pick up near the drop-off location of the first load.
✔ Match the carrier’s equipment type and load preferences.
✔ Have an appropriate pickup time after the first load delivers.
This ensures minimal downtime for the carrier and helps them stay on the road with reliable, sequential loads. By default, Continuous Haul looks for reloads within a 150-mile radius of the drop-off location.
2. Origin-Based Matching (For Empty Trailer Moves)
In cases where a carrier is contracted for an empty trailer move, you may want to match loads based on the starting location instead. It is possible to toggle the to Origin-Based Matching, which will:
✔ Find loads starting near the empty trailer’s pickup location.
✔ Allow carriers to fill available capacity before reaching their final drop-off.
What's Displayed in Continuous Haul?
Each suggested load includes key details to help brokers quickly evaluate the best options for their carriers:
🔹 Pickup & Delivery Info: Locations, dates, and times.
🔹 Distance Calculations: Miles to origin point.
🔹 Load Specifications: Equipment type, weight, commodity, and number of stops.
🔹 Pricing Information: Start, max, customer, DAT, and Book Now rates.
🔹 Quote & Booking Options: Add a quote, assign or send a Magic Link directly to the carrier.
📌 Pro Tip: Carriers are more likely to take a load that brings them closer to home, even at a lower rate. The domicile filter helps prioritize loads that make sense for them.
