How to Calculate Freight Cost Metrics
Understanding your true cost-per-mile (CPM) is vital to scaling logistics operations. This utility helps independent couriers, hotshot haulers, and freight dispatchers accurately evaluate market rates instantly before booking loads with brokers.
By factoring in your specific vehicle's MPG and the current regional fuel prices, you ensure that every load accepted is mathematically profitable, preventing "deadhead" miles from eating into your weekly revenue. Multiple stops can be added to calculate total trip legs.
