RHA Exchange - One Year On

07 Jan 2026 Posted By Craig Thompson

One year ago, RHA Exchange was introduced as an exclusive space within HaulageHub, giving Road Haulage Association (RHA) members a trusted way to share work with one another.

Designed specifically for RHA-accredited operators, RHA Exchange enables members to post and take work within a closed, verified network, helping reduce empty running, improve efficiency, and strengthen collaboration across the UK haulage industry.

Built on Experience — Not From Scratch

While RHA Exchange celebrates its first year, it is built on the established HaulageHub platform, which is now four years into operation.

As a result, RHA Exchange members benefit from:

  • Proven technology
  • Established security and verification
  • A mature, high-volume marketplace

Importantly, RHA Exchange is not a separate system. If you are an RHA Exchange member, you are already a HaulageHub member. Existing HaulageHub users simply need to ensure their RHA accreditation is recorded on their account to access the RHA Exchange area.

Delivering Real Results for RHA Members

Over the past year, RHA Exchange has seen strong engagement from members using the platform to sub-contract work safely and efficiently.

This has helped members to:

  • Reduce empty running
  • Improve vehicle utilisation
  • Increase profitability
  • Build trusted working relationships with fellow RHA members

By keeping the exchange exclusive to accredited operators, members can share work with confidence, knowing they are dealing with verified businesses that meet RHA standards.

A Secure and Growing Marketplace

Activity across the wider HaulageHub platform continues to grow, with marketplace volumes soaring and membership now reaching up to 5,000 users.

Within this, RHA Exchange has proven itself as a safe haven for seamless, secure sub-contracting, offering RHA members a protected environment backed by both industry accreditation and established technology.

Industry Insight Behind the Initiative

“RHA Exchange was created to give RHA members a trusted, accredited space to work together using technology that was already proven in the real world. With four years of HaulageHub behind it, the platform was built to solve genuine challenges around empty running and sub-contracting. One year on, it’s clear that members value having a secure environment where collaboration is simple, transparent, and built on trust.”

Growing, Evolving, and Expanding

RHA Exchange continues to grow steadily, with increasing usage, rising volumes, and ongoing platform development driven by member feedback.

As more RHA members record their accreditation and engage with the exchange, the network becomes even stronger.

Looking Ahead

One year on, RHA Exchange has established itself as a valuable, practical benefit for RHA members — combining exclusivity, trust, and proven technology.

Built on the solid foundations of HaulageHub and shaped by real industry needs, RHA Exchange is helping hauliers work smarter today — and setting the standard for collaboration tomorrow.
