To create a comprehensive and user-friendly Post New Load form that caters to different types of shipping methods—Truckload, Intermodal, Drayage, and LTL (Less Than Truckload)—it's essential to structure the form so that it adapts based on the selected load type. Here's how you can design an intuitive form for each of these: 1. General Form Structure The form should consist of common fields that apply to all load types, followed by specific fields that vary depending on the selected load type. 2. Core Fields (All Load Types) Load Type (Dropdown) Truckload Intermodal Drayage LTL This dropdown allows users to select the type of load they are posting, and the form will dynamically adjust based on this selection. Origin Location (Text Field / Auto-Complete) City, State, Zip Code, or specific location details. Include auto-completion to reduce input errors. Destination Location (Text Field / Auto-Complete) Same as the origin, with auto-completion. Weight (Text Field or Numeric Input) Include weight range if required. Must be in lbs or kg depending on the region. Cargo Type (Dropdown) Electronics, Furniture, Food, Machinery, etc. Helps define the nature of the load. Deadline (Date Picker) The latest acceptable delivery date. Price (Numeric Input) The price offered for the load. Load Description (Text Area) Provide a brief description of the load. Contact Information Shipper Name Email Address Phone Number 3. Conditional Fields Based on Load Type Truckload (TL) Specific Fields These fields should be displayed when "Truckload" is selected from the load type dropdown. Truck Type (Dropdown) Dry Van, Flatbed, Refrigerated, etc. Truck Capacity (Numeric Input) Enter the truck's capacity in terms of volume or weight. Pickup/Delivery Window (Date/Time Picker) If you need flexibility in pickup and delivery dates, use a window range. Special Requirements (Checkboxes) For example, Hazmat, Temperature-controlled, Lift Gate, etc. Intermodal Specific Fields These fields should be shown when "Intermodal" is selected from the dropdown. Rail Carrier (Dropdown) Specify the rail carrier (e.g., Union Pacific, Norfolk Southern, etc.). Rail Terminal Locations (Auto-Complete) Input for the intermodal terminal or rail station. Container Type (Dropdown) 20' container, 40' container, 45' container, etc. Intermodal Service (Dropdown) Origin-to-Destination via Rail, Transloading, or Full Intermodal Service. Drayage Specific Fields These fields should be shown when "Drayage" is selected. Port/Terminal Location (Dropdown) Ports like Los Angeles, Long Beach, etc. Container Type (Dropdown) Same as intermodal, e.g., 20' or 40' container. Drayage Service Type (Dropdown) Full container transport, port-to-port, etc. Receiving Terminal (Dropdown or Text Field) Specify the receiving terminal for unloading.

Final Actions: Submit Post [Button] Cancel [Button] 5. Additional Features: Dynamic Validation: The form should dynamically validate fields based on selected options (e.g., truck capacity is required if Truckload is selected, container type is required for Intermodal and Drayage). Progress Indicator: Show a progress bar or step indicator if the form has multiple steps, guiding users through filling out the necessary details. Pre-Filled Suggestions: Based on the user’s history or commonly selected options, provide suggestions or pre-fill certain fields (like origin, destination, or cargo type). By implementing this adaptable, multi-faceted load posting form, you can effectively handle various shipping needs while providing a smooth, user-friendly experience.
