How do I get more loads on Amazon Relay?

Guides & Tips

To get more loads on Amazon Relay, keep the load board refreshed so new postings appear the moment they drop, widen your filters when the board runs thin, and react within seconds. Other drivers book the good loads fast, so Relay Autobooker Cardamon's free auto-refresher with alerts, or its Premium auto-booking, decides how many of them you catch.

Why does the Amazon Relay load board look empty?

The board shows what other drivers left behind. Drivers running software that watches the board around the clock book the well-paying loads within seconds of posting. By the time you log in and scroll, those loads are gone and the leftovers look thin. A "no loads available" result usually means you checked between drops. New freight keeps posting through the day and night, and the drivers who book it are the ones watching when it lands.

How do I keep the load board refreshed?

Pressing F5 works for a few minutes. Nobody keeps it up for hours, and a full page reload is slow. The free Smart Refresher in Relay Autobooker Cardamon clicks the Search Loads button for you at the interval you pick, anywhere from 10 milliseconds up to 30 seconds, with 1 to 5 seconds as the recommended range. Turn on "Imitate a human's behavior" so the timing varies the way a person's clicks would, and let the audio alert tell you when something new lands.

Free forever: Smart Refresher needs no subscription and no trial clock. Install the extension, open the load board, and press START.

When do new loads drop on Amazon Relay?

Drop times vary by region, domicile, and lane, and they shift from week to week, so a posting schedule someone swears by on a forum may not match your board. Measure your own: run the refresher with audio alerts for a few days and note when the alerts cluster. Once you know your windows, cover them. Watch the board yourself or leave the extension running through them.

What if Amazon Relay says no loads available?

Loosen the search before you blame the market. Tight filters on a thin board return nothing even when bookable freight is sitting there:

  • Stretch the pickup radius around your location
  • Allow more stops per trip
  • Accept a shorter run that repositions you into a busier market
  • Lower the minimum payout in your Relay search for now and raise it again when freight picks up

Premium runs its own filters on top, and when one of them blocks a flagged load the "Skipped:" chip names the rule, such as "stops > 2" or "stem < 45m". You see which limit to loosen instead of guessing.

How do I book loads before other drivers do?

Seeing a load is half the job. On a busy lane the gap between posted and gone is a few seconds, and a human tapping through Book, Accept, and Confirm loses that race to software. Premium auto-booking handles the clicks: set Max Stops to skip multi-stop runs and a Stem Time so the extension skips pickups you cannot reach in time, then pick a booking strategy. Regular waits about 1000 ms between steps, Fast about 300 ms, and Super Fast 100 to 150 ms. If you would rather click yourself, press Ctrl+Space and the extension fires the topmost confirm button for you.

The math: Premium costs $49.99 a month or $499 a year, with a 7-day free trial and cancel anytime. If faster booking lands you one extra decent load a month, the subscription has paid for itself.

Can I monitor the load board 24/7?

Yes, on a desktop. Loads post while you sleep, fuel, or drive, so many drivers leave the extension running around the clock on a home computer with the Relay tab open. Set the power options so the machine does not sleep, keep the internet connection stable, and use multi-tab support if you run more than one search. The extension works in Chrome on Windows and macOS, and on Android through Kiwi Browser. It does not run on iPhone or iPad, so a phone in the cab does not replace the desktop at home.
