Flatbed Load Boards for Truckers

Find the Best Flatbed Loads Fast

Flatbed truckers know that finding the right load isn't just about availability. It's about matching freight with the right equipment and maximizing every haul. That's where a flatbed load board comes in.

A flatbed load board is an online platform that connects carriers with brokers and shippers offering freight suited to flatbed trailers. These boards are especially valuable because flatbed freight often involves large, wide, or irregular cargo that can't be hauled in a standard enclosed trailer. You need open-air space, securement options, and the ability to haul everything from steel beams to oversized machinery with confidence and safety.

Direct Freight simplifies this process with an intuitive load board tailored for flatbed carriers. Our platform lets you filter by equipment type, location, weight, and dimensions so you can quickly spot the flatbed loads that fit your rig. Whether you're hauling locally or across the country, you'll find steady opportunities with fewer deadhead miles and better-paying freight.

And when it comes to cost, we stand out. Direct Freight gives you access to advanced tools at a fraction of the price of competitors like DAT or Truckstop. That's more value, more features, and more control, all without breaking your budget. We help you focus on what really matters: staying loaded and profitable.

Tools Designed for Flatbed Truckers

Flatbed truckers face unique challenges: handling oversized cargo, planning routes around height or width restrictions, and working with specialized equipment. That's why we've built features specifically for flatbed freight professionals.
