Deadhead is the empty miles you drive with no load on the trailer — fuel and hours that don't pay. Load Hub gives you two deadhead filters so results only show loads that keep those empty miles inside your limit.
DH-O — deadhead to origin
DH-O sits next to the Origin field. It caps the deadhead between your origin and the load's pickup — the furthest you'll drive empty to reach the freight.
Set it tight when your truck is already sitting where you want to load. Open it up when you're willing to reposition to catch a better lane.
DH-D — deadhead from destination
DH-D sits next to the Destination field. It caps the empty miles on the back end — how far past the drop you're willing to run before your next load.
Use it when you're planning the reload: a lower DH-D keeps you near freight for the trip home.
Good to know
- DH-O and DH-D are also columns in the results table, and you can sort by them to put the least-deadhead loads on top — see reading the results table and sort, reorder, and hide duplicates.
- Deadhead is one field in the main filter row — for the full picture of both rows, see every search filter, explained.
