Losing your text load alerts? Here's what to do.

September 1, 2026

If your load board is moving away from text alerts — switching to an app that only works while it's open and running, or that only supports one device at a time — that's a real step down if you're used to a text landing the second a load matches, wherever you are, phone locked or not.

HeavyHaul Escort Loads sends real text alerts, matched to your specific city and radius rather than a broad region. Posting stays free for load managers/brokers, and pilot car companies get a 30-day free trial with no card required — $17.99/month after that, or $14.99/month effective if you prepay a year.

If you're dealing with a sudden change to how your alerts work, it might be worth trying something that still sends a real text the moment a load matches your route.
