LoadMatch review
A focused load board for intermodal matching, with flexible posting and directory tools.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
LoadMatch is a web-based transportation matching service for North American intermodal and over-the-road freight. It connects available loads with truck capacity and intermodal equipment, while providing search tools for loads, trucks and equipment. Its audience includes freight brokers, freight forwarders, intermodal marketing companies, motor carriers and equipment suppliers. The strongest fit is for teams focused on intermodal and drayage matching that also need transportation directories.
The pricing structure has two membership options. The Free plan costs $0 and supports posting loads, equipment or power, intermodal directory listings, and jobs and resumes. The Paid plan costs $600 per year with annual billing and adds full access and visibility, load and equipment viewing, email notifications for new postings, and direct posting from dispatch software. Paid accounts include a 30-day free trial, and payments are non-refundable after payment.
LoadMatch offers several ways to connect operational workflows: web forms, batch files, FTP, direct connections and XML data exchange. These options support posting, receiving matches and confirming transactions, which suits organizations that already manage dispatch or transportation data through established systems. The service has operated since 1999 and covers intermodal, drayage and transportation directories. However, the lack of mobile apps and a verified booking workflow limits its fit for teams seeking mobile-first operations or built-in booking confirmation. Choose LoadMatch for structured matching and posting across intermodal and over-the-road freight; consider an alternative if those workflow features are essential.
