Know the leg.
Know the handoff.
Clear guides for the part of a move between pickup and delivery: carriers, terminals, equipment, route changes, vehicle shipment and final-mile access.
Tell us about your move
Follow each move through its transport stages.
A truck, container, terminal receipt and delivery window each describe a different part of the shipment. These guides help you connect the equipment and records without assuming a company’s role.
Track custody as the shipment changes hands.
Record who accepted the goods, which terminal or carrier handled them, and what delivery window applies next. A dated record helps you ask a precise question if the schedule changes.
