Network Planning

Build a Freight Network That Earns More on Every Mile

Define primary and secondary lanes across every city you run, set rate-per-mile tolerances, and let LoadStop recommend the better route the moment conditions change.

Core Capabilities

Plan Trips as a Connected Network

Build repeatable trip loops across multiple cities, so dispatch runs from one consistent system for every load.

Trip Planning

Build repeatable trip loops across key cities, so your network runs on a consistent structure every time.

Primary Routes

Define the exact routes trucks should follow, so your core network stays consistent and predictable.

Secondary Options

Add backup routes the system can use when they improve rate per mile or reduce empty miles.

Rate-Per-Mile Tolerances

Set the margin and rate-per-mile range dispatch is allowed to route within, so a shift to a secondary lane always protects your numbers.

Multi-City Coverage

Connect as many cities as your network actually runs, including the ones that usually get skipped when planning is done manually.

NETWORK CONTROL

You Set the Boundaries. The System Works Inside Them.

Your team defines how the network runs. The system works inside those limits, adjusting individual routing decisions without breaking the structure you set.

  • Set clear trip structures your team can follow every day
  • Lock in preferred routes to protect consistency
  • Allow controlled flexibility where better options exist
  • Keep all decisions within your margin targets

FLEETOPS PLANNER

Better Route Decisions Without More Work

The system checks your routes against real options and adjusts only when it improves the outcome, without constant monitoring or manual replanning.

  • Switch routes only when it improves rate per mile
  • Reduce empty miles without locking drivers into a fixed return route
  • Take manual decision pressure off dispatch
  • Keep trucks moving on higher-value lanes

Success Stories

Proven Results From Real Operations

See how fleets and brokerages across the country are using LoadStop to operate more efficiently.

SE

Super Express

Regional Carrier

18%

Reduction in empty miles fleet-wide

"Empty miles reduced by 18% after backhaul pairing rollout"

Super Express used LoadStop's backhaul optimization tools to analyze their top 40 lanes and restructure driver run patterns around load pairing opportunities. The result was an 18% reduction in empty miles fleet-wide, adding directly to margin without adding a single truck.

AC

Amic Cargo

Asset-Based Carrier

$210K

Annualized margin improvement from lane exits

"3 underperforming lanes exited after lane profitability scoring"

Amic Cargo discovered through LoadStop's lane scoring that three high-volume corridors were generating negative contribution margin after accounting for deadhead and driver costs. Exiting those lanes and redeploying capacity to higher-margin runs added $210K in annualized operating income.

HD

HD Express

Multi-Terminal

6 wks

Terminal site selection cycle, down from 4+ months

"New terminal location selected in 6 weeks using density modeling"

HD Express evaluated five candidate terminal locations using LoadStop's load density mapping and service radius analysis. The data-driven process compressed a decision that typically takes months into six weeks and gave the leadership team quantified confidence in the chosen site.
