WHAT IS TRUCKSCANNER

Stop Paying Just to See Available Loads

Every day you waste hours juggling phone calls, emails and paid load boards charging €150 or more per month just to access their freight listings. You pay the subscription, only to find that available loads are scarce, poorly filtered or already taken.

Meanwhile, your truck runs empty on the return leg — burning fuel and margins.

What if you could access a load board with no mandatory subscription, where every bid you place is free and every job you win stays 100% in your pocket? A place where verified shippers post real transport requests and artificial intelligence flags the loads best suited to your fleet, routes and availability?

Digital interface showing compatible freight notifications on smartphone and desktop

With Truckscanner you access a free freight exchange with no limits: search loads by route and vehicle type, bid with one click, negotiate directly with the shipper via integrated chat and receive digital transport orders.

All with zero commission on completed jobs. Premium plans exist for those who want more, but they're never mandatory.

HOW TRUCKSCANNER WORKS

How the Free Load Board Works

The Truckscanner load board works in a straightforward way: shippers post real transport requests, you see them in real time, place your bid and negotiate directly. No middlemen, no commission. The AI Smart Matching algorithm automatically flags loads compatible with your profile, fleet and regular routes — so you spend less time searching and more time earning.

BENEFITS

Why Carriers Choose Truckscanner

Free Forever — No Catches

Free registration, free load board access, unlimited free bids, zero commission on completed orders. This is not a trial: the Free plan is yours forever. Premium plans exist for advanced features, but they're never mandatory. The model works because the more carriers register, the more valuable the network becomes for shippers who pay for subscriptions.

Artificial intelligence analysing routes and vehicles to match loads with carriers

AI Matching: The Right Loads for Your Fleet

With Premium you get priority matching and automatically receive 5 qualified contacts for every compatible load.

Fewer Empty Miles, More Profit for You

Every mile run empty is a cost. With the Truckscanner load board you find return loads matching your lanes and reduce deadhead running. Fewer empty kilometres means higher operating margins and lower CO₂ emissions — a win for your business and the environment.

An Open Network, Not an Exclusive Club

Traditional load boards create barriers to entry with mandatory subscriptions. Truckscanner does the opposite: the network is open to all transport professionals — from an owner-operator with a 3.5t van to a fleet with hundreds of vehicles. The more carriers join, the more shippers find coverage, the more loads get posted. A virtuous circle that grows every day.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Truckscanner really free for carriers?

Yes, 100%. Free registration, free access to the load board, unlimited free bidding, zero commission on completed orders. You can use the platform without ever paying anything. Paid plans exist only for those who want advanced features such as priority AI Matching, WhatsApp notifications and a premium showcase — but they're never mandatory.

Why is the load board free? What's the business model?

The model is simple: the more carriers register, the more valuable the network becomes for shippers and freight forwarders who pay for subscriptions. If we charged entry fees or commissions, hauliers wouldn't join and the platform wouldn't work. Free access for carriers is the engine that drives the entire system.

Which carriers and hauliers can register on the load board?

Everyone. From owner-operators with a 3.5t van to fleets with hundreds of vehicles. Hauliers, niche operators specialising in reefer, ADR and heavy haulage, dedicated couriers, intermodal operators. The only requirement is being a legally registered business. For EU-based carriers, a valid Community Licence is required for verification.

What types of freight can I find on the load board?

All freight categories: palletised goods, non-palletised loads, dry and liquid bulk, containers, intermodal units, heavy haulage, ADR hazmat, temperature-controlled shipments, food products with HACCP compliance and waste. Whatever your specialisation, you can find compatible loads.

How does load searching work on Truckscanner?

During registration you enter your preferences: coverage areas, regular routes, vehicle types and cargo you carry. When a shipper posts a request matching your profile, you receive an email notification (or on WhatsApp with Premium) or find it directly on the load board. View the details and submit your quote with one click. All free.

What does the Premium plan offer carriers?

Premium gives you priority visibility in AI matches, WhatsApp freight alerts, a dedicated web showcase indexed on Google, advanced margin and performance statistics, and the ability to contact shippers proactively. Pricing varies by company size. But remember: the Free plan is fully functional for finding loads, bidding and closing orders — Premium is for those who want to maximise opportunities.

Does Truckscanner charge commission on transport orders?

No commission, ever. Truckscanner connects supply and demand but does not participate in transactions. We are not financial intermediaries: negotiations, agreements and payments happen directly between you and the shipper. 100% of what you earn stays in your pocket.

How does Truckscanner differ from Timocom, Teleroute or Trans.eu?

Traditional freight exchanges require mandatory subscriptions of €150 or more per month just to access the network. On Truckscanner, registration and core use are free forever for carriers. On top of that, you're not just on a load board: you get an integrated TMS with chat, digital orders, document archive and AI matching. It's an open marketplace with management tools, not just a list of loads.

How are shippers verified on the platform?

Truckscanner verifies company data against official registries, checks operational status and validates the information provided. Verified shippers are flagged with a badge on the platform. With Premium you also access financial ratings to assess reliability before accepting an order.

Can I use Truckscanner to manage my existing customers?

Absolutely. Many carriers use the platform to better manage the customers they already have — after all, it's free. Your clients can invite you directly and you manage quotes, orders and documents in one place instead of via phone and email. Plus, you access new opportunities from the marketplace whenever you have spare capacity.

Truckscanner connects supply and demand without financial intermediaries.

Transactions occur directly between the parties involved, ensuring full transparency and complete control over your business. Truckscanner never gets involved between carrier and shipper: negotiations, commercial agreements and payments are exclusively between you.
