Dry van dispatch

The backbone of over-the-road freight.

Overview

Dispatching for dry van carriers

Dry van is the most common trailer on the road, which means the widest pool of freight and the steadiest lanes. We put that volume to work for you, booking consistent runs instead of chasing whatever's left late in the day.

What we watch

Load planning for dry van

  • A broad freight base

    Because almost every shipper moves dry freight, there's more to choose from. We filter for the loads that fit your rate and your lanes, not just the first one posted.

  • Appointments and dock time

    A lot of van freight runs on tight dock windows. We book appointments and keep brokers updated so a long wait at one dock doesn't cost you the next load.

  • Weight and reloads

    We watch gross weight on heavier palletized loads and plan reloads so you're rarely sitting empty between a drop and the next pickup.

What kind of freight moves best in a dry van?

Dry, non-perishable freight — palletized and boxed goods, retail and consumer products, packaged food and paper. Because so much freight moves this way, there's usually a deep pool to choose from.

Do you dispatch both 48- and 53-foot dry vans?

Yes. We confirm your trailer length and weight limits at onboarding and look for loads that fit, so you aren't booked under freight your van can't legally or practically carry.

How do you keep a dry van from running empty?

We plan reloads a day ahead and work consistent lanes, lining up your next load before the current one delivers to cut the deadhead between drop and pickup.
