Return Loads - Freight Exchange


Issue 160 29 July 2011

To keep your fleet at its most efficient and profitable, delivering a load is only half the story: a long return journey with an empty truck is a costly and fruitless affair. Pooling travel and cargo information with other operators via freight exchange networks allow drivers to pick up nearby consignments for the return trip, putting an end to empty vehicles and saving on wasted fuel, time and money.

Eddy Huylebroeck, Customer Manager, Gilbert de Clercq: "The import and export department in particular makes great use of Teleroute. It is there that they handle the return freights for all planned freight trucks and offer the excess supply of loads in the system. We find 6-7% of our backloads on Teleroute."
