Jordan Panos in Australia has recently launched a new company called Ecoloads. The company aims to link up transport providers with customers to reduce costs for customers, help transport companies fill vehicles and cut the volume of traffic on the roads.
The company claims to be able to move household goods, office equipment and furniture, pianos, and cars through its free-to-use website that gives companies the opportunity of bidding for jobs across the country and providing customers with price comparisons.
"Ecoloads creates a genuine win/win situation,” said Jordan. “We deliver the best prices and quality service to our customers, while transporters are increasing efficiencies and optimising capacity in their vehicles. More jobs picked up enroute means reduced operational costs for drivers, which are a bonus when rates, fuel, and taxes are always on the rise. By maximising routes, we minimise our carbon footprint helping the environment to win a little.
Ecoloads recognises the carbon impact freight vehicles have on the environment and pledges $1 to Greenfleet from every job that is fulfilled. A native tree is planted for every $4 donation. The partnership with Greenfleet is in support of building resilient native forests which work to absorb carbon from the atmosphere.
