Load Board abbreviations for straight trucks

[chuckwagon]

I am looking at some different load boards and to be honest am having a mind fart of some sort as I can not figure out what the abbreviation would be for a straight truck.
I have a 22-foot straight truck and like I said do not know what the abbreviation on the more common load boards would be.
ANY HELP PLEASE???????

CWagon, I am the dumb one from your Union post. Try LTL, Van, and go by weight. You can also look at flatbed freight and decide if it is something you can carry in your box. DryVan is another. Hope that helps.

most load boards I use have a drop down menu that list truck abbreviations.

but v=van not a cargo but like a 48 or 53' van
va=van with air ride

then click the ltl for type of load ltl=less than truck load or partial shippments.


it just really depends on what board your using. the above examples was taken from getloaded.com

These are the usual ones on a list. As mentioned, vans, HS,V and VA are the most common for expedite. VR or R would be a reefer box.
