123Loadboard Collaborates with Trimble to Expand Freight Offering to Owner Operators and Fleets

Freight matching platform 123Loadboard and cutting-edge technology provider Trimble reveal they have collaborated to increase the volume of loads available on the freight matching platform to attract more carriers wanting to find loads and give brokers an opportunity to capitalize on the increased capacity.

Trimble’s broker members can now post loads on 123Loadboard’s smart platform and access broker capacity tools that help them see where available trucks are situated near their loads. Carrier members are encouraged to post their trucks so brokers can reach out to them based on their verification status and equipment type. 123Loadboard’s integration with Trimble will allow carriers to search and secure loads using bidding as well as seamless, book-now digital transactions on the freight matching platform. Members can access multiple rate sources, confirm trip mileage, review brokers’ current credit ratings and calculate load profitability. Membership on 123Loadboard requires drivers to verify their operating authority to establish their credibility which accelerates digital freight bookings.

“This integration was completed with freight providers in mind by allowing easy load-posting capabilities with enhanced Truck Locator tools,” says Shannon Jacobs, Product Manager, Trimble. “By offering load and truck posting through 123Loadboard’s platform, we can give freight brokers more value while reducing their search efforts for posted trucks.”

Trimble and 123Loadboard acknowledge that the increased loads available to carriers will help accelerate the time frame in which brokers can improve the number of loads being hauled.

“This partnership provides Trimble’s freight brokers with the ability to fulfill capacity by accessing top-quality, identity-verified carriers, secure two-way bidding capabilities, and finding the right equipment type in the truck posting database. Being able to provide brokers with more trucks and easy platform tools, is one way of fulfilling our mandate of increased efficiency for our users,” says Greg Adourian, CEO, 123Loadboard.

123Loadboard’s in-depth knowledge of the freight matching industry along with Trimble’s position as an innovative logistics leader is an ideal match that will help brokers find identity-verified carriers for their freight hauling needs.
