    When brokers post a power only load often a new trailer for delivery it sometimes says "tow away" only. what does tow away add to the description when we already know what it is? What does it mean?

    Tow away versus loadout
    Tow-away the trailer is the load in entirety, load out you can put a load in the trailer on the way to deliver the trailer.
