Returnloads has launched a brand new smartphone app. Once downloaded, users are able to access features including job allocation, estimated time of arrivals, electronic proof of delivery (ePODS), and vehicle tracking. This allows users to boost their business productivity and profits with ease. Designed for haulage companies and owner drivers to help with job allocation, giving users a live view of their jobs and vehicles status, users can see when a driver arrives at the pick-up location. They can then confirm the status of the job as picked up, enter the estimated time of arrival, and mark the load as in transit once the load has left the pickup site. The entire journey is updated in real-time with updates being sent to the loader via email. Once the driver has successfully delivered the load, they will be able to capture the signature through the new ‘sign-on glass’ feature as proof the customer has received the load, reducing incidents of delivery dispute or the need for any paper-based delivery trails.
