Hi!

Thank you for posting this and reminding all load posters about this common issue. The responsibility falls on the load poster to remove the listing as soon as it is no longer available and we try to stress this as much as possible. The BulkLoads development team is working hard to come up with a solution to eliminating this issue. As a reminder to all carriers, you can flag a load that is no longer available. This will send the load to us and we can remove it if it is no longer available. We want carriers to be the most efficient with booking loads and hope to see this issue resolved soon.

Thank you,

There's too much reposting someone else's load for them to keep up with. When it gets "actually" covered,all the other guys down the food chain are still fishing or hoping for a easy buck!

Yep. A guy wasted an entire week of my time with that BS. Had me waiting to pick up the load and I don't think he ever really had it.

There's a Midlothian TX to Garland TX pneumatic load that's been gone for a couple weeks. The broker is listed as Jake. I spoke to him a while ago and he said he would remove it but it's still there.

There's also 2 Houston to New Caney TX posts listed by the same person. It was the same load they just needed several trucks. I was going to do it last month but the broker flaked on me. The load may be covered by now. However there's no need to post the same load twice.

There has been fostoria, oh to massillon, oh listed for 5 months now. The loads are not available and never were but the broker does not remove them. What a joke

Name the broker here. (unless there is a directive not to do that by Bulkloads). Those unscrupulous types are looking to generate calls and traffic to their office.
