Start your 3 free days

Two short steps. Step 1 tells us about your truck — it lands straight in our inbox. Step 2 (secure, through Stripe) starts your free trial and puts your card on file for later — nothing is charged today or during the 3 free days. Then a human calls you, walks the agreement with you, and sets your pay floor before the first load is ever offered.

How it works

  1. 1. Tell us your truckEquipment, home base, and the lanes you like to run.
  2. 2. Get matched loadsWe hunt the freight and send you loads that fit — no refreshing five boards at a truck stop.
  3. 3. Haul and keep moreLoad boards charge $39–$169 a month whether you haul or not, and dispatchers take 5–10% plus their terms. With us you pick: pay per load — no monthly fee, 7% only on loads you book through us, 5% for smaller trucks, nothing at all when your truck doesn't haul — or Flat at $42.99 a month with no per-load cut, for drivers who run every day.

The members' board — this is the format

FORMAT ONLY — examples. Real loads go to signed-up members by text. Nothing real is posted free here.

Columbus, OH → Atlanta, GA
Dry van · 43,500 lb · picks up today
Fort Worth, TX → Kansas City, MO
Reefer · 38,000 lb · picks up tomorrow
Charlotte, NC → Nashville, TN
Flatbed · 45,000 lb · picks up today

This is the shape of the board: Flat members always see a fresh top 3 matched to their truck before the rest of the list — the Premium top-3 board is included with the Flat tier. The lanes above are examples of the format — your real board is built from live freight for your equipment and your area.

This map is a preview of how those nearby loads present around your truck: your dot in the middle, the freight around it, colored by what it pays per mile.

Questions drivers ask, answered straight

What is Load Hunter?

Load Hunter is a load-finding service for owner operators. It is not a load board. Load Hunter finds truck loads matched to your equipment, your lane, and where your truck is, and sends them to you, so you do not have to spend your day searching and refreshing a board.

How do I find loads for my truck?

To find loads for your truck with Load Hunter, tell Load Hunter your equipment, your home base, and the lanes you like to run. Load Hunter then hunts for loads that fit your truck and sends you the matches. You choose which loads to take.

How do I find loads for my box truck?

Load Hunter finds loads for box trucks. Box truck drivers tell Load Hunter their truck size, home base, and lanes, and Load Hunter sends them matched box truck loads. Box trucks are smaller trucks, so they pay 5% of a load booked through Load Hunter instead of the standard 7%, and only when they haul.

Where do I find hotshot loads?

Load Hunter finds hotshot loads for hotshot drivers. Tell Load Hunter your equipment, home base, and the lanes you run, and Load Hunter sends you hotshot loads matched to your truck instead of making you hunt a load board for them. Hotshot trucks pay the smaller-truck rate of 5% on loads booked through Load Hunter.

Where do I find sprinter van loads?

Load Hunter finds sprinter van loads for sprinter van and cargo van drivers. Tell Load Hunter your van, home base, and lanes, and Load Hunter sends you matched loads. Sprinter vans are smaller trucks, so they pay 5% of a load booked through Load Hunter instead of the standard 7%, and only when they haul.

How much does Load Hunter cost?

Load Hunter costs nothing to try for 3 days. After the 3-day free trial, you choose how to pay. Pay per load: no monthly fee — Load Hunter charges 7% of each load you book through Load Hunter, or 5% for smaller trucks such as box trucks, hotshot trucks, and sprinter vans, and you pay nothing when you do not haul a load through Load Hunter. Or Flat: $42.99 a month, built for full-time drivers who run every day. Flat includes everything in pay per load plus the Premium top-3 board — the freshest top 3 loads near you, refreshed daily — and flat members pay no per-load percentage at all, just the monthly fee.

How is Load Hunter different from a load board or DAT?

A load board such as DAT charges a monthly fee and the driver does the hunting: searching, refreshing, and sorting through loads himself. Load Hunter does the hunting for you, sending you loads matched to your truck and lane. On pay per load there is no monthly fee: Load Hunter charges 7%, or 5% for smaller trucks, only on a load you actually book and haul through the service. Or choose Flat at $42.99 a month and pay no per-load percentage.

Who is Load Hunter for?

Load Hunter is for owner operators who would rather drive than hunt a load board. It is built in particular for smaller trucks that the big load boards bury and some dispatch services charge more or will not take at all, including box trucks, hotshot trucks, sprinter vans, and cargo vans, as well as dry van, reefer, and flatbed drivers.

How do I start with Load Hunter?

To start with Load Hunter, go to loadstohaul.com and start the 3-day free trial. Tell Load Hunter your equipment, home base, and the lanes you like to run, and Load Hunter starts sending you matched loads. A card is kept on file for the trial, and if you cancel before day 4 you pay nothing.

Built for owner operators

Whether you run a dry van, reefer, flatbed, box truck, or hotshot, the problem is the same: the load board eats your day. Load Hunter is the load-finding service for drivers who would rather be driving. Find loads near you, skip the deadhead-heavy junk, and the minute you're booked, we start hunting your next load from where you're booked to.
