Loads that come to you, and money that turns up in days

You know how it goes. Work goes out to a group chat, the good reply lands at half past two by which point you have already given it away cheaper, and nobody can tell you what that lane actually pays. Then you wait sixty days to get paid for the one you did win.

The usual fix costs thousands, up front, on a twelve month contract. That is a big bet for a firm with three vans.

What we are trying to change

Subcontracted freight is a trade built on trust and run on group chats. A firm with three vans competes for work it cannot see, against prices it cannot check, and then waits on money it cannot chase. None of that is a technology problem. It is a problem of who knows what, and when.

The tools meant to fix it want thousands up front on a twelve month contract. That is a bet most operators cannot make, so most of them never do, and the trade carries on as it is. We think the way in is to charge little enough that trying it is not a decision, and to do the difficult part properly instead of quickly.

The difficult part is the checking. Anyone can build a board. Knowing that the firm on the other end of it is who they say they are, insured for what they are carrying, and licensed for what they are driving, is the whole job.

How we work

Three rules we hold ourselves to. Each one is visible in the product, so you can check we mean it.

  1. A person checks every firm before it trades. Insurance, company details, and an operator licence where the law requires one. We ask each operator for what their vehicles actually oblige them to hold, so a van under 3.5 tonnes is never asked for a licence it does not need, and nothing above it gets on without one.
  2. The terms are on the table before anyone commits. The price and the payment terms sit on the load where both sides can read them. Ours are on the pricing page in full, in numbers, where you do not have to ring anybody to find them out.
  3. Your money stays yours. The poster pays the mover directly on the terms they agreed. We never hold, move or take a cut of freight money. What we charge is our own, it is the same whether the load is worth two hundred pounds or two thousand, and it is the entire list.

What you get

  • The work finds you. Save the runs you actually do and a load on your lane hits your phone the minute it is posted. Members see it up to 30 minutes before anyone else.
  • You know the terms before you quote. Every load says when it pays, on the card, next to the price. No chasing an office to find out you are on sixty days after you have already run it.
  • Everyone here has been checked. Insurance, licence and company details, read by a person before anybody can post or quote. That is why a load on this board is worth your diesel.
  • Real prices on real lanes. What loads like yours actually went for, built from quotes people sent, so you stop pricing off memory.
