Load Profit Calculator
Plug in a real load before you book it. The all-in rate per mile matters more than the headline pay.
Fuel Estimate Note
Use your average loaded MPG.
This calculator intentionally uses a conservative fuel estimate by applying that MPG across all miles traveled, including loaded miles, deadhead miles, and repositioning miles.
Actual fuel consumption may be lower when operating empty, but using loaded MPG helps avoid underestimating fuel costs.

Profit is only one piece of the decision
- Time matters. A load that pays well but consumes too many hours can cost you more than it earns. Every hour on the road is an hour you cannot use to book or haul another load.
- Market position matters. A profitable load that drops you in a weak freight market can leave you stranded with no backhaul. A lower-paying load that delivers you to a strong market may be worth more over the next week.
- Personal and home time matter. A load that gets you closer to home or into a better lane for your schedule can be more valuable than the rate alone suggests.
This calculator estimates profit. Real-world decisions also require market awareness, deadhead planning, and time management.
