About us.

Kuormat.com was born from the need to create better road logistics. We realized that the current state of logistics has many pain points that cause inefficiencies for both transport companies as well as shippers who need transport services. Inefficiency in road transport also leads to unnecessary emissions.

We challenge the current situation of logistics:

Transport demand and supply do not meet in real time on the market, and the efficiency of logistics suffers.
About 1% of all CO2 emissions in Finland come from driving empty, as about 23% of transports are driven without freight.
Transport contracts are time-consuming to negotiate and rarely flexible.
The current way of organizing logistics takes time away from the core business of shippers and carriers.
The majority of Finnish carriers are small and only subcontract for larger carriers.

Environmental impact

In Finland, about 450 million kilometers are driven empty each year in road freight transport. In addition, the transport fill rate is only around 60–80%.* This means that only a little more than half of road freight transportation capacity is being utilized. Our vision is to eliminate driving empty and to offer companies completely carbon neutral transport, easily and reliably.

Eliminating driving empty requires long-term work, and this will not happen overnight. That's why we start our work by minimizing empty driving and improving the filling rate of underutilized trucks.

We are developing the following:

Utilizing empty kilometres

In Finland, about one in four trucks drives empty. Our platform allows combining transports so that empty trucks can be given new freight to drive.

LTL consolidation

We are developing technology to combine LTL loads.

Filling the empty capacity of trucks

We help carriers to find more freight to better utilize their capacity.
