Check truck axle weights against federal and state limits. Verify steer, drive, and tandem axle compliance with FMCSA 80,000 lb GVW and per-axle regulations.
Calculate the total cost of deadhead (empty) miles including fuel, driver pay, maintenance, and insurance. Quantify empty repositioning expenses per route.
Calculate driver available hours under FMCSA HOS rules. Track 11-hour drive limit, 14-hour window, 70-hour/8-day cycle, and required break compliance.
Calculate empty miles percentage and cost for your fleet. Track deadhead ratio, quantify the financial impact, and identify lanes with the worst empty mile problems.
Calculate total fleet capacity based on vehicle count, capacity per vehicle, operating days, and utilization rate. Plan fleet size for demand requirements.
Calculate fleet maintenance cost per mile including preventive maintenance, corrective repairs, tires, parts, and labor. Benchmark your maintenance CPM against industry averages.
Calculate hazmat transportation costs including base rate, surcharges, placarding, certification, and insurance premiums. Estimate total cost for hazardous materials shipments.
Plan optimal truck loads by calculating pallet positions, weight distribution, and loading sequence. Maximize trailer utilization with first-off-last-on loading.
Calculate daily miles a driver can cover based on available drive hours and average speed. Plan loads and routes within HOS-compliant daily distance limits.
Estimate oversize load permit costs including base fees, per-mile charges, and escort requirements. Plan permit expenses for wide, tall, long, and overweight loads.
Estimate overweight truck fines by pounds overweight and state penalty schedules. Calculate potential fines for steer, drive, tandem, and GVW violations.
Calculate refrigeration unit fuel cost for temperature-controlled shipments. Estimate reefer fuel consumption based on run hours, consumption rate, and fuel price.
Calculate the premium for temperature-controlled shipping vs. standard dry van rates. Estimate reefer multiplier costs for frozen, refrigerated, and heated freight.
Calculate truck utilization percentage by comparing loaded miles to total miles. Measure fleet efficiency and identify deadhead reduction opportunities.
Calculate whether weight or volume is the constraining factor for a truck load. Compare weight fill and cube fill to optimize load planning and avoid capacity waste.
Calculate front and rear axle weights for truck loads. Ensure proper weight distribution across axle groups to comply with per-axle limits and maintain safe handling.
