; The Active / Past toggle on the load board controls which postings you see. Active is for booking. Past is for research. ## Active loads **Active** shows loads that are currently live on the board. These are postings the broker has not removed or aged off yet. If a load matches your filters, you can save it, email the broker, or call to negotiate. Active is the default view when you open the board. ## Past loads **Past** shows postings that have aged off the board. A load moves to Past when the broker removes it, the pickup date passes, or the posting expires. Past loads are **no longer bookable**. You cannot call the broker and book a Past load. The value is in what you learn from it. ## Why use Past loads Past loads are useful for 3 reasons: 1. **Sanity-check rates**: See what brokers actually posted for a lane last week or last month. Compare those rates to current postings. 2. **Broker history**: See what a specific broker normally posts. Do they run the same lanes? Do their rates move with fuel? Are their postings usually complete? 3. **Market norms**: Understand what equipment types and lanes are active in your region during different seasons. ## How to switch 1. Open the load board. 2. Click the **Active / Past** toggle at the top of the filter bar. 3. Your other filters (lane, equipment, rate, broker) still apply. You can search Past loads the same way you search Active loads.
