There’s a reason DAT is the load board used by the majority of independent owner-operators.
DAT offers the best database of rate info in the country, giving you access to freight of all kinds. The DAT load board shows jobs for dry vans, reefers, flatbeds, and other trailer types, and the inbound/outbound charts let you know where your trucks are needed next. If you don’t typically work with contracts, then the spot freight load board is there for you, too.
Stay ahead of the competition.
Take advantage of DAT’s lane rate and market data and be the first to know about market trends.
Using DAT’s freight load board gives your business a leg up. We vet brokers, and you can see their company credit scores and average time to pay to ensure that you’re picking the right loads that make sense for your business. DAT also lets you know which loads can be factored, taking the worry out of having cash on-hand.
Get paid on-time, every time.
Leave the worry to us! Just check the freight load boards for your next delivery and get back on the road.
Most DAT plans offer access to DAT Assurance at no extra charge. Basically, we guarantee that you’ll get paid for every qualified load that you deliver through our platform. If your customer is past due, we’ll help facilitate the collections process, and if worse comes to worse, we’ll pay you ourselves. Plus, the DAT Directory lets you check broker credit and business history to form better partnerships.
The DAT load board contains the most accurate freight rates you’ll find in the industry. We track the going lane rate that brokers have paid over the past 15 or 90 days (depending on your plan), so you can make informed decisions about the loads that are most worth your time.
The load boards are also designed to be easy to use, so you can filter and sort multiple searches on the same screen to compare broker credit scores, days to pay, and reviews from other owner operators. Market maps show you where demand is hot and where to go next.
We certainly think so! With a subscription, you’ll get access to the DAT freight load board, as well as our financial services, including our partnership with OTR Solutions, which offers factoring services for carriers. All load board subscriptions include our mobile app, which makes it painless to find loads on the road.
If you’re looking to avoid low-paying routes or below-average rates, then the DAT freight load board is a must-have. Access to the DAT load board is available in Standard, Enhanced, and Pro, Select and Office packages, providing you with the tools best suited to your budget.
