Your all-in rate per mile, deadhead included

A load that pays well on loaded miles can lose money once you add the empty ones to get there. This calculator folds deadhead and fuel into one all-in rate per mile so a cheap load has nowhere to hide. Free to run, and the first bad load it talks you out of has paid for it.

How to use it

1. Enter the offered rate, loaded miles and deadhead.
2. Add fuel and your running cost per mile.
3. See the all-in rate per mile and whether to take, counter or pass — before you answer dispatch.
