123Loadboard.com™ Launches Powerful "Rate Check" Tool to Calculate Freight Rates and Maximize Trucking Profits
123Loadboard.com™ kicks down the door to the new year with the launch of their “Rate Check” feature, giving brokers, carriers and shippers the ability to look up and measure the profitability of truck lanes.
“We are all excited to offer a valuable freight rate analysis tool that services both the broker and carrier side at an incredible price point. So far the response by our members has been overwhelming. Members have been signing up at a record pace and this is further testament to the value Rate Check offers.” said Loarn Metzen, VP of 123Loadboard.com™.
“In these tough economic times, it is vital for both carriers and brokers to have as much information as possible to negotiate better prices. Rate Check gives them the ability to have average freight rates in mind prior to getting to the negotiation table.” Continued Loarn.
Rate Check will track critical freight rate data from thousands of truck lanes for all major North American market areas. The new tool from 123Loadboard.com™, which initially launched as BETA in December 2012, comes at the perfect time for freight carriers as the industry looks for a viable advantage during difficult economic conditions. Rate Check breaks down the most profitable truckload lanes by analyzing the average rate per mile, line haul revenue and average fuel cost per trip. Transportation professionals can target where they want to haul freight based on the dollar amount generated by specific routes. This allows them to negotiate better rates to increase their profits.
“None of our competitors offer a freight rate analysis tool at such an incredible value. We take huge pride in listening to the needs of our members and implement tools that our members can benefit from while keeping costs in mind.” said AJ Sansoye, Director of Operations of 123Loadboard.com™.

It’s definitely no secret that truck driving is one of North America's most essential and demanding jobs.

They miss birthdays, anniversaries, family dinners, school plays and many other special moments that most of us take for granted.
“National Truck Driver Appreciation Week allows us to recognize and appreciate the sacrifices that professional truck drivers make every day out on the road. 123Loadboard.com is celebrating this occasion by giving away over $75,000 of load board memberships, $25,000 more than last year." said Loarn Metzen, VP of 123Loadboard.com™.

123Loadboard Launches New Tool To Help Reduce Deadhead Miles
123Loadboard.com™ (www.123loadboard.com), a leading freight matching service for the trucking industry, has launched a new tool to help professional truck drivers reduce their deadhead miles by allowing members to search for loads and automatically post their truck with a single click of a mouse.
Trucking companies and owner-operators understand the importance of keeping their equipment filled with truck freight for every mile covered. Too much deadheading (ie. empty miles) can literally drive a trucking company out of business very quickly. The ability to find a load on a freight that will get them back home -or- into a better freight lane, also known as a backhaul, is a major challenge for many.
"123Loadboard.com continuously strives to give members an extraordinary load board experience. By using the latest technologies, we've recently developed new innovative tools to help professional truck drivers save time and reduce deadheading." said Loarn Metzen, VP and COO of 123Loadboard.com™.
"The "Search and Post My Truck" tool gives professional truck drivers the added benefit of added fuel cost savings, drastically reducing deadhead miles and greatly minimizing layovers." continued Loarn.

123Loadboard Launches Additional Source For Credit Information Provided by Ansonia Credit Data
In a time of economic uncertainty when competition is high and profits are low, transportation companies need a low-cost, industry-specific credit source they can count on to help determine prospects’ and customers’ ability to pay. That is why eighty percent of the largest less-than-truckload (LTL) carriers and fully half of the largest truckload (TL) carriers in the U.S. and Canada use Ansonia Credit Reports. Ansonia allows companies to make faster, smarter credit decisions so they can spend time building their business, not dealing with collection agencies.
"Changes that occur in the credit standing of your business partners can make or break your company in the blink of an eye." said Orazio Mauro, Logistics Specialist & Analyst of 123Loadboard.com™.
"123Loadboard.com is focused on protecting your business and now provides an additional source for credit information to make better business decisions. Our members now receive unlimited access to Ansonia Credit Data, one of the most knowledgeable credit reporting agencies, on all load providers. The additional credit source is updated on a daily basis and includes days-to-pay, credit risk score and number of companies reporting." said Greg Adourian, President of 123Loadboard.com™.
