FAQs

How does the Freight Load Planner ensure legal compliance?

Our tool is built with standard weight limits in mind, including per-axle restrictions for common truck types like 53-foot trailers or 40-foot containers. When you input your cargo details, it cross-checks against these limits and flags any issues. You’ll get a warning if the load exceeds capacity or if the distribution could cause axle overloads, so you can adjust before hitting the road. It’s not a substitute for local regulations, though, so always double-check specific laws in your area.

Can I use this tool for different types of trucks or containers?

Absolutely! We’ve got a range of predefined options, from 53-foot trailers to 40-foot shipping containers, each with their own max weight and volume limits programmed in. Just pick the one you’re using, and the tool adjusts its calculations accordingly. If you’ve got a custom setup, we’re working on adding more flexibility soon—stay tuned!

Is the loading diagram detailed enough for real-world use?

The diagram is a simplified visual to give you a quick sense of how to arrange your cargo for balance and space. It’s not a to-scale blueprint, since our focus is on accurate calculations over fancy graphics. You’ll still get precise data on where to place items, and the visual just helps you picture it. Use it as a starting point, and feel free to tweak based on your specific loading dock setup.
