Shorter lanes still need a clear plan
A local move can involve warehouse cutoffs, loading queues and tight receiver appointments. We review the addresses, freight and timing together so that the proposed transportation matches the shipment. For recurring moves, send the frequency and typical load profile as well as the next pickup.
What to send dispatch
- Full pickup and delivery locations
- Shipping and receiving hours, including appointment requirements
- Freight weight, dimensions and loading method
- One-time or recurring frequency and any time constraints
Put facility requirements in the shipment plan
Tell us about restricted access, limited dock hours or an onsite contact required for entry. Same-day or time-specific requests need a capacity review. A nearby destination alone does not establish a guaranteed turnaround time.
Before booking
Review the written rate and shipment instructions. Tell us about changes in weight, dimensions, loading arrangements or delivery timing before the truck is dispatched.
