PORTLAND, Ore., June 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DAT Freight & Analytics has expanded the reloads feature in the Convoy Platform app, a trucking app that helps carriers book and haul freight, giving carriers a view of available freight near the delivery stop before they book a load. With earlier visibility into backhaul options, carriers can plan beyond the first leg, factor the full trip into their bidding decision, and avoid costly empty miles.

How Reloads Work
In the Convoy Platform app, carriers will see a badge at the top of the load details indicating the number of reloads available in the delivery market.

Full information on the available reloads can be found below the facility information on the load details page. Each reload option shows the book-now rate, deadhead miles to the pickup, and pickup timing after delivery. From there, carriers book or bid directly on that freight in the Convoy app.

Know Before You Go
"Carriers want to keep moving, and every load matters. Fuel costs are up, deadheading is a waste, and eliminating empty miles is critical to running a profitable business," said Bill Driegert, EVP, Convoy Platform. "Reloads are a simple way to give carriers better information before booking so they can make better decisions and keep their trucks moving."

ExpedICE Logistics, a refrigerated carrier based in Terre Haute, Indiana, is an early adopter of the expanded reloads feature.

"Knowing what freight is available to us before we go into a market helps us evaluate each opportunity before booking,” said Amber Laughrey of ExpedICE Logistics. “Reloads help us avoid weaker markets, reduce deadhead miles, and keep the truck moving profitably.”

Carriers not on the Convoy Platform yet can download the free trucking app to book and haul broker-verified loads from a trusted free load board: convoy.com/download-app
