A loader positioning system which includes a positional sensor and visual indicators for centering a product being loaded from a loading vehicle into a receiving vehicle. The loader positioning system generally includes a loading vehicle including a dispenser for dispensing a material and a container for receiving the material. A sensor on the loading vehicle detects a distance between the loading vehicle and the container. A control unit receives and processes the positional data from the sensor and compares it to optimal spacing between the loading vehicle and the container such that the dispenser is centrally positioned over the container for central loading of the material into the container. A display in the loading vehicle provides movement instructions to an operator of the loading vehicle such that the dispenser is centrally positioned over the container for optimal loading of the material into the container.
