Load board
Trucker Tools’ load board is called Book It Now and it allows carriers to search for and book loads. It helps carriers find loads in their preferred lanes and save their favourite brokers. It can recommend loads based on your preferences such as lanes, equipment types and history.
You can find loads that suit your needs and send quotes or negotiate rates easily with the click of a button. Once a rate is agreed, the load is booked. You can then view and manage the load through their system including tracking.
To become a carrier for Trucker Tools you need to sign up on their website to create an account before you can start to use the load board.
Brokers can book loads 24/7 through their carrier network of 165,000 and over 13 million truckers which can reduce their workload in finding suitable carriers. They also get improved visibility through tracking tools.
ELD/telematics
Trucker Tools offers real time visibility of loads and trucks through integrating ELD and telematics solutions that are easy and secure to use. A one-time setup is required on each truck to get them ready for tracking. The ELD solution doesn’t need the drivers to get involved and reduces the amount of check calls needed.
The ELD connection and tracking feature is free for carriers and provides a reliable tracking alternative to smartphones or other devices. Tracking automatically starts and stops which can allow you to track all vehicle usage and make efficiencies. The data produced by the ELD can be provided to brokers with only the necessary information such as location data.
You can sign up for the ELD/telematic tracking on their website by completing their short form and selecting your provider. This will then be integrated with the other services you have from Trucker Tools.
TMS
Trucker Tools offers integration with your TMS or dispatch system through sharing location data so that you have visibility on loads. This can be achieved through two different ways – API integration or CSV via SFTP.
The API integration involves the location data being shared through API. The CSV via SFTP involves location data being shared in a CSV file via SFTP and then being uploaded to the TMS or dispatch system via email or direct upload.
You can enquire about TMS integration by completing their form on the website.
