    What is Rate Per Mile?

    Also written as RPM

    Rate per mile (RPM) is the load's total revenue divided by the miles required to run it. All-in RPM includes deadhead miles; loaded RPM does not, which is why the two numbers can differ sharply.

    Why it matters in day-to-day operations

    Compare all-in RPM against your cost per mile to know whether a load is actually profitable.
