Know your trailer. Run it like a business.

Dry van, reefer, flatbed, step deck, power only, and box truck each print money differently. TomaFreight dispatches the truck you actually have — not a generic “we’ll find something.”

Dry Van

The workhorse. Retail, e-commerce, and dry freight nationwide.

Typical spot now $2.90 /mi all-in · L/T 9.5

National all-in spot has been running near $2.90–$3.05/mi. Outbound from Chicago, Dallas, and Atlanta still pays a premium; backhauls into those markets need a sharp dispatcher.

We keep vans off cheap headhauls. If the RPM does not cover your cost plus a real profit, we pass and find the next load.

Dispatch my Dry Van
53′ enclosed Most common OTR box
Payload Up to ~45,000 lbs
Best for Palletized dry freight
CDL Class A

What it hauls

  • Retail & e-commerce
  • Food (non-temp)
  • Auto parts
  • Consumer goods

What we watch for you

  • Detention at big-box receivers
  • No-touch vs. driver-assist
  • Drop-and-hook vs. live unload

Reefer

Temperature-controlled. Produce, protein, and pharma that cannot wait.

Typical spot now $3.41 /mi all-in · L/T 19.0

Reefers are the second-tightest major market. All-in national spot near $3.35–$3.45/mi, with produce lanes running hotter in season.

We match your reefer to lanes that actually need the unit — not dry freight stuffed in a reefer at van money.

Dispatch my Reefer
53′ refrigerated Multi-temp capable
Payload Up to ~44,000 lbs

  • Frozen food
  • Pharma & floral

What we watch for you

  • Multi-stop produce
  • Fuel for the unit on long dwell

Flatbed

Open deck. Steel, lumber, machinery — the construction backbone.

Typical spot now $3.64 /mi all-in · L/T 34.5

Flatbed remains the strongest major board — all-in national near $3.50–$3.65/mi with load-to-truck still very tight. Do not give it away.

We price flatbed like the tight market it is. Tarping, oversize, and site delays get written into the rate confirmation.

Dispatch my Flatbed
48′ × 102″ Standard open deck
Payload Up to ~48,000 lbs
Gear Tarps, chains, straps
CDL Class A + experience

What it hauls

  • Steel & coil
  • Lumber
  • Pipe & construction
  • Machinery

What we watch for you

  • Tarp vs. no-tarp pay
  • Oversize permits
  • Jobsite wait time

Step Deck

Drop-deck for taller freight that will not fit a straight flatbed.

Typical spot now $3.76 /mi all-in · L/T 22.5

Step deck typically clears a dime or more over straight flatbed because the freight is specialized. National all-in near $3.65–$3.80/mi.

We do not book step decks as cheap flatbeds. If it needs the drop, it pays for the drop.

Dispatch my Step Deck
Upper / lower deck ~37″ lower deck
Payload Up to ~48,000 lbs
Height Taller freight legal
CDL Class A

What it hauls

  • Construction equipment
  • Tall machinery
  • Prefabricated walls
  • Industrial skids

What we watch for you

  • Legal height on the upper deck
  • Ramps and loading method
  • Permit loads

Power Only

Tractor, no trailer. Drop-and-hook trailer pools and dedicated moves.

Typical spot now $2.44 /mi all-in · L/T 7.7

Power-only RPM looks lower on paper (~$2.30–$2.55/mi all-in) because there is no trailer asset — but utilization and drop-hook speed make weekly gross.

We hunt trailer pools that keep you hooked and moving, not 80-mile bobtails between dumps.

Box Truck

Straight truck. Regional, last-mile, and no-CDL operations.

Typical spot now $3.03 /mi all-in · L/T 5.9

Box trucks print on short miles. Typical all-in $2.90–$3.20/mi, with day-rate and per-stop work often beating long OTR RPM.

We build box-truck weeks around density — stacked stops, not 400-mile one-way empties home.

Dispatch my Box Truck
