Haulage scheduling is an important feature in CargoWise that allows logistics companies to successfully plan, organize, and manage the movement of goods using trucking services. It makes scheduling collection and delivery times in detail easier, allocating vehicles, assigning drivers, and optimizing routing. This function is critical for managing FTL and LTL services in both domestic and cross-border logistics operations. By centralizing all trucking operations, users can enhance the reliability of services, reduce delays, and improve overall logistics coordination.

CargoWise’s haulage scheduling solution connects seamlessly with other supply chain modules, allowing for real-time updates, exception notifications, and status visibility along the logistics journey. It allows for automated dispatch, geolocation tracking, and interaction with fleet management systems. This level of automation lowers the need for manual coordination, alleviates scheduling issues, and ensures timely delivery compliance. As a result, logistics companies can maintain operational control, fulfill tight schedules, and give consistent client service.
