What are Equipment Types?

Equipment types define the trailer or truck configuration needed for your freight. Selecting the right equipment — and adding relevant requirements — ensures carriers can actually handle your load and helps you get accurate bids.

What brokers use equipment types for:

• Match freight to capacity — Enter complete load and lane details so Cargado automatically shows the posting only to carriers that can service it.
• Expand carrier reach — Select multiple compatible equipment types to get more bids.
• Specify requirements — Add equipment-specific needs like food grade, e-tracks, or temp control.
• Handle specialized moves — Source power-only, oversized, and overweight capacity.
