Haulage Exchange has reached the milestone of more than 1,000 live loads posted online.
The freight exchange network now boasts up to 111 loads posted on the site. Three-quarters of the loads are being taken up by subscribers, while new subscribers are online every week, says the network.
Armstrong Distribution Services, Haulage Exchange's 200th subscriber, has enjoyed a huge operational change to using more sub-contractors since signing up. Proprietor Paul Armstrong tells Motor Transport that his own fleet has dropped from 30 trucks to just 12. "It means less diesel, less drivers and more time to assist our customers," he says.
