Drivers

Tired of pulling into a pick-up or drop-off location not knowing where to go or what building to look for?

Sounds about right.

Dock411 is here to help drivers get where they need to go by hosting detailed information about stops across North America. Look up local directions, wait times, weight limits, parking situations, load/unload procedures, restroom availability, lumper fees, hazards and warehouse photos. That just scratches the surface. When you join the Dock411 users can see what other drivers had to say about a location, share their own dock experiences, and in turn help out the next guy. With Dock411, drivers can communicate with transportation managers, warehouse operators and others that determine how quickly and efficiently you get in and out of your stop.

Shippers & Receivers

Wouldn’t it be nice if you had a nickel for every time a driver either got lost, stuck in your lot, or showed up with improperly loaded or damaged freight?

Lack of knowledge and miscommunication are responsible for a lot of wasted time and effort in warehouses across the country. Shippers can take matters into their own hands by entering detailed and accurate information about their facility into the Dock411 app. Our Web App is ideal for shippers to share dock information with drivers ahead of time to avoid future setbacks. Get on the same page and save everyone some time, money and frustration.

Carriers

Ever get a call from a driver that can’t find a dock, is saying the skids are too heavy to be unloaded, or has damaged freight? We’re betting on the answer being ‘yes’.

Carriers can also reap the benefits of Dock411. We’ve created a new channel of communication between office personnel and those on the road. The Web App is meant to improve communication between company and driver. With the D411 ID(TM), dispatch can send important dock information to drivers so they’re prepared before they arrive. Warn them of hazards at and around their stops, make routes more efficient and eliminate surprises. Also, have the ability to evaluate a location before sending a driver there blindly. Use this information to weed out the poorly rated shippers with long wait times, rude personnel, and terrible yard conditions. Expand your margins and take care of the shippers that take care of you. Our details can assist sales and operations better price and plan for a load.

Avoid situations that suck by bringing Dock411 into the equation. Show drivers you care by providing them with a valuable resource that can save them time, money and frustration.

Insurance Companies

Receiving claims from your trucking clients hitting bridges, low wires or parked cars? We can help. Obviously we can’t stop every trucking accident, but in hindsight, most mishaps are preventable.

Dock411 is a step in the right direction. If truck drivers have knowledge of hazards and challenges at their stops before they get there, they’re less likely to damage their rig or other property such as buildings, signs, or parked cars in the area. Prevention is key, and Dock411 is providing information to drivers and industry employees that can help eliminate surprises and setbacks.

We are currently working with a number of insurance companies to help put a dent in the massive number of claims made in the trucking industry. Contact us to see how we can team up make a difference.
