Getloaded launches free trucking app

   Getloaded, a Midlothian, Va.-based provider of logistics freight matching services, has introduced a mobile app for Android phones that offers access to its trucking industry load board and its Website functionality.
   In specific, Getloaded’s free Android app provides a simplified interface that allows the user to access features like:

• Browsing of available loads and trucks in the nearby area.
• GPS- and specified location-based load and truck searches.
• Unlimited lane bids, truck posts, and load searches any time on any day.
• Touch-to-call load or truck contact information.

   The functionality of this app is identical to the company’s app for the iPhone, both of which are powered by Getloaded’s “Web Services,” the company’s integrations tool.
   Fergus Caldicott, general manager at Getloaded, said the company is experiencing a record-high freight volume.
