Truckstop.com and ProMiles partner up to streamline heavy haul quoting

Truckstop.com and ProMiles announced an expanded partnership to power route-based quoting inside the Truckstop Heavy Haul Load Board. The enhancement connects real freight opportunities with real route and permit data, giving carriers a clearer way to price oversize and overweight loads before they commit, according to a dual Truckstop.com and ProMiles press release. 

The Truckstop Heavy Haul Load Board now integrates ProMiles route intelligence directly into the quoting process. As carriers evaluate available freight, the system applies jurisdiction-specific permit rules and calculates multi-state permitting costs based on the actual route the load would take.

“Pricing a load often requires multiple systems and time-intensive workflows,” the press release said. “Route restrictions change by state. Permit costs shift based on axle count, dimensions, and weight. Escorts, pilot cars, and route surveys add expense. One missed detail can turn a strong rate into a loss.”

“Heavy haul carriers operate with more variables and pricing complexity than most freight segments,” said Todd Waldron, vice president of carrier experience, Truckstop.com. “A wrong permit assumption or missed escort requirement can erase profit fast. Bringing ProMiles route intelligence into the Heavy Haul Load Board gives carriers pricing they can stand behind before they accept the load.”

Instead of building quotes off rough estimates or separate systems, carriers see the route, requirements and associated costs alongside the load opportunity. Wadron explained that for heavy haul carriers, this means that:

• Quotes reflect actual routes and permit requirements
• Multi-state permitting costs, including pilot cars and escorts, are calculated automatically
• Response time improves when responding to specialized freight
• Under-quoting risk decreases on complex moves
• Margin protection improves on high-cost, high-risk loads

The route-based quoting capability is delivered through API-driven workflows, and carriers can scale their quoting process without adding headcount or layering on more manual work.

“Truckstop.com and ProMiles have worked together for decades with a shared focus on serving carriers,” said Tony Stroncheck, founder, co-president and chairman of ProMiles. “This expansion builds on a long-term relationship rooted in real-world trucking. Integrating route-based permitting intelligence directly into the Heavy Haul Load Board supports carriers who move the most complex freight on the road.”

The Heavy Haul Load Board is designed for carriers hauling oversize and overweight freight who need more than load visibility.
