Load Board
Dump Truck Equipment Type
A new
Dump Truck
equipment category has been added to BulkLoads. Load posters can now post freight specifically under the Dump Truck category, fully separating it from End Dump listings. Carriers can also identify and display that they run a dump truck when posting available trucks or updating their profile.In Simple Terms:

- Profiles and posted trucks reflect equipment type more accurately

- Carriers can also update their profile equipment list to include “Dump Truck.”
