🚚 For Carriers

Free proof of delivery, tracking, and quoting

Capture a signed POD on the driver's phone, hand customers a tracking link instead of taking their check calls, and quote a lane in seconds. Free for you — and for the shippers who send you freight.

We're not a load board. We don't broker freight or post loads. We handle the paperwork around it — bills of lading, proof of delivery, and tracking your customers can see for themselves.

Why Carriers Love loaddesk.io

We built this tool to make freight shipping smoother for everyone in the supply chain

NEW
✍️

Electronic Proof of Delivery

Every BOL can print a QR code that turns the driver's phone into an ePOD device. Capture the consignee's signature, freight photos, and a timestamped delivery record — then download a signed POD PDF for billing or factoring. No app install, no driver accounts. See how it works ↓

📍

Shipment Tracking

Every BOL automatically generates a unique tracking ID with a shareable public tracking page. Your customers can add status updates and share real-time shipment progress with their customers—reducing "where is my freight?" calls to your dispatch team. View sample tracking page →

Faster Pickups

When customers arrive with pre-filled BOLs, your drivers spend less time waiting. No more handwriting forms on the loading dock—just verify, sign, and go.

Fewer Errors

Digital forms mean clearer addresses, accurate weights, and complete shipment details. Reduce billing disputes and avoid costly delivery mistakes from illegible handwriting.

🆓

Zero Cost

Completely free for you and your customers. No subscriptions, no per-use fees, no hidden costs. Share the link freely with anyone who needs to ship with you.

🔒

No Signup Required

Your customers can start creating BOLs immediately—no account creation, no personal data collection. Records stay in their browser by default, with optional sync if they want the same history on a second device.

📱

Works Everywhere

Browser-based tool works on any device—desktop, tablet, or phone. Your customers can prepare BOLs from their office, warehouse, or even on the road.

🌐

International Support

Built-in HTS code lookup, Schedule B search, commercial invoice generation, and certificate of origin for cross-border shipments. One tool for domestic and international freight.

Free Tools Built for Carriers

Back-office capabilities the big carriers have — without the enterprise software

NEW

Instant Quote Generator

Rate any shipment against your own tariff — US freight classes or European loadmeter/pallet zone rates — apply a fuel surcharge and your accessorial prices, and send a branded quote PDF or link in seconds. The "instant professional quote" experience big carriers get from API rating. Open the tool →

✍️

Driver ePOD

A QR code on every BOL turns the driver's phone into an ePOD device: consignee signature, freight photos, and a signed POD PDF for billing or factoring. How it works ↓

NEW
🚚

CMR Consignment Note

Running loads into or across Europe and the UK? Generate a metric CMR consignment note — the road-freight equivalent of the BOL — with the same ePOD, tracking, and sharing built in. Open the tool →

NEW
🧾

One-Click Factoring Packet

Stop assembling submissions by hand. One click merges your invoice, BOL, rate confirmation, and signed POD into a single PDF — in the order your factoring company expects. How it works ↓

NEW
📡

EDI 214 Status Export

Some brokers and shippers ask for EDI and won't work with a carrier who can't produce it. Any load with tracking can export a shipment-status file (EDI X12 214) built from its tracking history — a real EDI file to send your trading partner, not just a PDF. It's a download, not a live EDI connection: you still send it to your partner however you already do EDI with them. Open your dashboard →

✍️ Electronic Proof of Delivery (ePOD)

Big carriers give their drivers apps for delivery confirmation. Small carriers photograph paper PODs in truck stops. loaddesk.io closes that gap: the paper BOL your driver already carries becomes the ePOD device — no app, no accounts, no cost.

1️⃣ 📄

QR Prints on the BOL

When a BOL is finalized with "Include ePOD barcode" checked (it's on by default), a secure QR code is printed right on the document.

2️⃣ 📱

Driver Scans at Delivery

The driver scans the QR with their phone camera. A mobile page opens with the shipment details — nothing to download or log into.

3️⃣ ✍️

Consignee Signs on Screen

The receiver signs with their finger, the driver snaps photos of the freight, notes any exceptions, and taps Confirm. Delivery is timestamped automatically.

4️⃣ 📥

Signed POD, Instantly

The tracking page flips to "Delivered" and a signed POD PDF — signature, photos, receiver name, and time — is ready to download for invoicing or factoring.

Why it matters for small TL & LTL carriers

  • Get paid faster: factoring companies and shippers reject invoices over missing or illegible PODs. A clean, signed POD PDF ends the paper chase.
  • Win claim disputes: timestamped delivery photos and exception notes captured at the dock are the evidence you don't have today.
  • Fewer check calls: the moment the driver submits, the public tracking page shows "Delivered — received by [name]" for anyone with the link.
  • Zero driver friction: works on any phone with a camera. Owner-operators and day drivers need no training, apps, or passwords.

🧾 One-Click Factoring Packet

Factoring companies reject submissions over missing or mismatched paperwork constantly. loaddesk.io assembles the whole packet for you, in the right order, every time — no more downloading four PDFs and stitching them together by hand.

1️⃣ 🧮

Enter the Charges

From a finalized BOL, click "Assemble Packet" and enter the freight charge plus any accessorials — detention, liftgate, whatever applies to this load.

2️⃣ 📎

Attach the Rate Con

Upload the broker's rate confirmation once. loaddesk.io remembers it for this load and lets you replace it if a revised rate con comes in.

3️⃣ ✅

POD Included Automatically

If the shipment has a signed ePOD on file, it's already checked for you — and any delivery exceptions noted at drop-off are flagged so you can bill for them.

4️⃣ 📥

One PDF, In Order

Invoice, BOL, rate confirmation, and POD merge into a single PDF, ready to email straight to your factoring company.

Why it matters for small carriers who factor

  • Get paid faster: a complete, correctly-ordered packet is less likely to bounce back from your factor over missing paperwork.
  • No new data entry: built on the BOL and ePOD you're already generating — you only add the charges and the rate con.
  • Available from BOL History and the Dashboard: assemble a packet the moment a load is finalized, or any time after delivery.

How Carriers Use loaddesk.io

  • Share with new customers: Include the link in your welcome email or customer onboarding materials. Show them exactly what information you need on a BOL.
  • Post on your website: Add a "Create BOL" button that links to loaddesk.io. Make it easy for customers to prepare documentation before calling for pickup.
  • Backup for internal use: When your TMS is down or you're handling an unusual shipment, use loaddesk.io to quickly generate compliant BOL forms.
  • Small carrier operations: If you don't have dedicated BOL software, use this as your primary documentation tool. Professional forms without the enterprise software cost.
  • Customer service tool: When customers call asking "what information do you need?", send them to loaddesk.io to see a sample form and all required fields.
  • Proactive shipment tracking: Share the tracking link with both shippers and consignees immediately after pickup. The public tracking page lets everyone monitor shipment status in real-time, dramatically reducing "where's my freight?" calls to your dispatch team.
  • Paperless proof of delivery: Have drivers scan the ePOD QR code printed on the BOL at every drop. The consignee signs on the driver's phone, photos document freight condition, and dispatch can download the signed POD PDF minutes after delivery.
  • Factoring submissions: Once a load is delivered, use "Assemble Packet" to merge the invoice, BOL, rate confirmation, and signed POD into one PDF — ready to email straight to your factoring company. See how it works
  • Rate quoting: Customers can upload your rate charts to get instant freight quotes. They see your pricing before calling, reducing back-and-forth communication.
  • Shipment visibility: Each BOL includes a tracking ID with a public tracking page. Customers can share tracking links with their customers and add status updates ("Picked up", "In Transit", "Delivered"), reducing tracking calls to your office while providing professional shipment visibility.

💡 Pro Tip

Add loaddesk.io to your email signature and driver pickup confirmations. When customers create BOLs in advance, your drivers can focus on loading and moving freight instead of paperwork. The average pickup time reduction is 5-10 minutes when customers arrive with completed documentation.
