How are loads offered to carriers?

Our load-matching technology finds the most compatible carriers in the area.

 Carriers are offered the best local loads for their business. Loads are intelligently offered using your active location and information you provided at onboarding (equipment, truck details, and additional services). Carriers with higher ratings get priority for load offers. Always strive for lower cancelation rates and higher on-time arrival rates. Learn more about how cancelation rates affect offer eligibility here.

Loads are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Enable push notifications to ensure you’re notified instantly when new loads are available.

Location requirements to receive offers:

  • Carrier location must be less than 100 mi of straight-line distance to a shipment's pick-up location

  • Active location shared within last 12 hours

Mothership's load-matching technology relies on your precise location to offer you the best loads available. Make sure your location is always shared with Mothership. If your location sharing is “only while using the app,” your location is only known when the app is open on your phone, and Mothership won’t have accurate information to offer you new nearby loads. When you have your location shared “always”, you are always eligible for nearby loads.

Mothership uses your precise location to ensure you always have the opportunity to earn the most money. We display the current and new schedules side by side so that you can easily compare the route, distance, and pay before deciding whether you want to accept.

How can I view the loads available in my area?
Every Mothership load gets offered with select eligible carriers in real-time. Loads are only visible to those carriers and are available on a first-come, first-served basis. To view your available loads, visit the Nearby tab in the Mothership Carrier app. You can also receive new loads via SMS and push notifications. Double-check your notification settings to ensure you'll receive them instantly.

I clicked on an offer but couldn't see it in the app. What happened?
When a load is no longer available, another qualified carrier has accepted the offer.

Where can I drive?
Mothership operates in 37 metropolitan areas nationwide. Carriers can work in any zone and receive dispatches based on their most recent location.
