There are two methods for matching freight to your available truck or trailer, and you can do either, or both. The first method you can use to match freight is to go to a freight matching site and search for freight that is available in your area. To do this, enter your location and (if applicable) your destination along with the type of truck you are trying to load and do a search for freight that matches. Freight brokers can do the same thing by entering their load information and then searching for available trucks in the same area. Freight match sites often charge a monthly subscription fee to search their database.
