HaulBook Driver is for drivers running for a carrier that uses HaulBook. KNOW YOUR PAY This week's net, loads run, miles loaded and empty, and what you earn per mile. Your payout history, and an estimate of what's coming on the next one. TODAY'S LOAD Stops, appointment windows, and what the shipper needs — in your pocket. Mark yourself arrived and departed at each stop, and the office sees it without a phone call. PAPERWORK AT THE DOCK Snap the POD or a receipt and it files itself to the right load. The camera finds the page edges and straightens it into a clean PDF. No email, no photos lost in your camera roll. YOUR PAPERS STAY CURRENT CDL, medical card and the rest, with reminders before they expire. YOUR TRUCK AND TRAILER The unit you're assigned, its plate and VIN, and whether its registration and inspections are still valid. WORKS WHERE YOU DRIVE Loads and documents stay readable with no signal, because coverage disappears exactly where the freight is. Join with the code your office gives you — the same login works wherever you drive. HaulBook Driver is free. It requires an account with a carrier that uses HaulBook; drivers cannot sign up on their own.
