Long gone are the days of using paper maps or even printing pages of directions. If you’re a driver or manage a fleet of trucks, one of the most valuable tools of your trade is a GPS system. These devices are affixed to your dashboard and can guide you toward your next destination. As technology develops, GPS systems have become easier to manage and can do more for your business and driving experience than simply light the way.
In trucking, managing various expenses comes down to the efficiency of your freight transportation. The more you can save on your own operational expenses; the more money is left for you at the end of a haul. And there’s one never-ending expense that all truckers struggle to manage, and that is trying to save fuel. But we’ve got a few steps you can take to help shave some of that fuel consumption down and let those little savings add up to some bigger profits.
123Loadboard has a new way to help truckers find more loads – without any more searching. Using Big Data and GPS based technology, they identify available loads near the carrier’s truck that match their equipment type and allow the driver to receive a Load Alert notification on their smartphone sent directly from the broker or shipper with the relevant load details.
