Is this load worth it?

A load’s profit is what it pays minus driver pay, fuel for the loaded and empty miles, other costs such as tolls and lumper, and any factoring fee. Compare the rate per total mile, empty miles included, with your cost per mile before you book.

How do I use it?

  1. Type what the load pays, its loaded miles and the empty miles to get to it.

  4. Add your factoring fee if you factor, and read the profit and the rate per mile.

Questions

Why count the empty miles?

You burn fuel and time on the way to the pickup, so a load that looks good per loaded mile can lose money per total mile.

Is this how Tovarlo works out profit?

Yes: rate minus driver pay, load expenses and the factoring fee, the same rule as Tovarlo’s reports. In Tovarlo the figures come from your loads, expenses and invoices.

What isn’t included?

Fixed costs such as truck payments and insurance. Use the cost per mile calculator to see those per mile.
