How do search filters work?

Use filters to reduce noise, not to over-engineer the search. Good filter discipline helps carriers find workable jobs faster.

Search filters are there to narrow the result set toward jobs you can actually service. The goal is not to build the most complicated search possible. The goal is to reduce noise and make the shortlist better.

1Nearby filters

On nearby search, the radius is the main control. You can then layer quick filters such as goods types, vehicle or capacity-related fit, sort order, and the option to only show jobs where both collection and delivery sit within the radius.

2Corridor filters

On corridor search, the route itself is the foundation. The corridor width, date window, goods filters, reverse-route option, and sort behaviour then help shape what counts as a useful match for that lane.

3How to use them well

Start broad enough to see the market, then narrow only where the filter genuinely reflects your operation. Over-filtering too early can hide viable jobs; under-filtering leaves too much noise.

Best practice: treat filters as an operating rulebook for your fleet, not as decoration around the search form.
