So many brokers have said that their customers want the closest unit no matter what the price is. Why? Because they are already paying so much money for small boxes to be shipped from commercial settings that they want someone who can pick up their expensive freight in under an hour. This is also true for large straight trucks that transport more weight and larger sized pallets directly from manufactures. This is where our Map App helps you because we show you exactly where to go so you get the load quicker and faster than before. No more waiting long hours or even days!

In this industry there are 3 factors that get you a load.

  • Luck
  • Price
  • Distance To Pick Up

Can’t help you with luck or the price just yet, but for now we can help you with the distance to pick up. 

Brokers in the expedited hot shot cargo industry want vans and trucks under 60 miles away. For example, if there are three drivers who are 60, 20, and 6 miles away from the load. Who do you think will get the load? No matter what the price is, the unit who is the closest to the pick up city will get the load 100% of the time.

This idea, this website, this web map app was designed and built around to help you the driver. If it wasn’t for you being able to sacrifice and grind and drive long hours through the night fighting the feeling of sleep for hours none of this would be possible. We want to share our Vision for Growth.

First stage is to have the map app to help the driver get closer to the freight. That is our current stage. We have the technology we can build it and we did. It’s really simple and is designed all around you, the driver. The free version, the pricing, and the website being mobile friendly, was all designed around the expedited driver. Every-step was carefully designed and planned to help you get loads faster. We want to eliminate the wait.

Second stage is to have a dispatch app so our Load Near Me drivers know exactly where to go to get the best freight and we will be there to give them the best rates! So building off of the first stage we will help you get to the best location. Then we want to directly dispatch loads right to you from those exact locations. We think this will help drivers eliminate the wait even more by combining our map app with a dispatch service. We know the best locations for expedited freight and we know the prices in all those areas, we just have to combine the two so you get the best experience.

Third stage is to help owner operators and start up companies grow bigger by providing them with the apps, tools, and training they need to start and grow their business. Everyone wants to be their own boss and some of you are lucky enough to be your own boss. Maybe you have another vehicle or maybe you have a couple of vehicles. Even if you just have one cargo van or one box truck and just have a LLC, we want to help you grow your business! Being able to partner with Alic Consulting we can provide the applications, the tools, the training, the knowledge, the experience, the dispatchers, the processes, etc. You name it and we can do it. If you help us grow and get to this stage then we want to help you and help you grow into becoming a full blown transportation business. Transportation is a trillion dollar industry in America and everyone can be apart of it.

Ideally Load Near Me will have 3 revenue producing areas. 1st is the map app. 2nd is the carrier / dispatch app. 3rd is the training app to help train and familiar yourself or your dispatchers with prices. Nothing comes easy in this world but we are gonna make sure that we use our experience to help you make things a little easier. Why go through the trouble of being confused and not knowing what to do when we want to help. That is what Load Near Me is all about. So help us and we will help you.

We know what’s it like sitting and waiting for cargo that’s why we launched our app. In this blog we will talk about the spots to wait for.

As you know or became familiar there are the typical spots where you would wait. Truck stops and grocery store parking lots. We agree that these typical locations like truck stops are the safest areas to wait overnight and rest. However during the day time you are there with several other vehicles that want the same thing as you. Get a load and get out of there as quickly as possibly.

That’s why we have our app so you know exactly where to go to limit your wait. We suggest driving close to our spots in the daytime to improve your chances, then checking in with your dispatch with your new location. Ideally with more users we are gonna be able to grow our app out so you can get loads directly through us and not have to check in and not have to wait!

When it comes to waiting obviously some places will not have enough space for large trucks or even sprinters but that’s why we give full access to our map. The premium map includes search features so you can search for grocery stores, parking spots, truck stops, coffee, etc and even get directions to these areas. You will be surprised to find out how quickly you get loads out of certain areas. Even knowing the zip codes and hot areas you can find grocery stores or other public places to park your vehicle near by.

Feel free to share some stories or spots you stayed during your career as an expediter.

Welcome to Load Near Me. This is a brand new app designed to help the drivers. Like you have no idea how much I hate when drivers have to drive empty or even worse when they sit and waste an entire day. It’s beyond annoying so that’s why we launched. To help you and save your time while saving my sanity.

Our goal is to get enough users where we are profitable and able to develop the app to another level. Ideally we want the app to be autonomous and become a carrier.

Meaning once you create your account and submit the required paperwork you will be eligible for loads. We want you to get notifications about loads and their hot spot areas when you drive by. We want the app to automatically bid for you and automatically track the cargo.

Eventually Load Near Me will help by showing you the best spots to go to and then be able to find you work directly from our app without you having to ever worry about checking in or hassling for prices. We have the data for all of this we just need users to help us grow. We are far from our vision but with your help we can achieve it.

Thank you for believing in us 🙏

While everyone was somehow affected by Covid 19, the transportation industry was hit in all sectors including expedite, rail, air, and vans. A once upon a time trillion dollar industry in the United States, Covid 19 has declined the transportation sector to roughly 770 billion dollars. The decline is mostly due to economic slowdown and inability to keep the people safe from the virus.

We knew the hardest hit months were April and May because the drivers that we are in contact with have all complained that they were barely doing 3 loads a week. We were all affected small companies and big companies like Synder, JB Hunt, YRC worldwide. As things start to bounce back and recover drivers are still worried about going over the road.

The fear is real and as far as we know most major truck stops have not implement large scale cleaning operations. Everything still looks and feels the same at the majority of truck stops we toured. We do hope that as business start to open up and companies are implementing new measures to be safe, that the transportation industry will start up again.

This transition should trickle down from semi-tracks to air, rail, and even expedited cargo markets. We are sure that the US market will bounce back but we are predicting that the Asia-Pacific market will bounce back the highest helped my China and India.

You can now drive closer to those areas and be 5 miles away instead of 60 miles away from the freight. We guarantee that you will get more loads and make more money because you are not sitting and waiting 100 miles away.
