The strongest load decision is usually based on how the entire trip fits the business—not simply the gross amount associated with one load.
The current Dry Van Available Loads page includes a Load Board overview video and explains that owner-operators can search freight using criteria such as origin, destination, rate-per-mile, trailer type, weight and revenue.
Use the video as an introduction to the process. A practical load decision still requires comparing the freight with the truck, schedule, deadhead, trip costs and the market after delivery.
The existing Dry Van page highlights route planning, mobile access and saved-search alerts. This updated layout keeps those user-focused topics while adding clearer qualifiers around current feature availability.

The current Dry Van page explains that owner-operators can use load-board information to review possible freight and plan future routes before the truck is empty.
Use route details to compare timing, destination, deadhead and how the next trip may fit the operating schedule. Planning ahead may support better decisions, but it does not guarantee that a particular load or route will remain available.
The existing page states that owner-operators can access load-board information through a mobile application as well as the online version. It describes using the app to search and book loads while away from a desktop.
The live copy also describes multi-leg run planning based on search criteria and says the app has been available for Android and iOS devices.
