First & Final Mile, the Pickup and Delivery Solution

LoadMaster LTL gives your planners the ability to visually plan outbound trailers, through a simple drag and drop process, and set schedules for deliveries plus the driver’s known pickups on that route for the day. The planning process driven with McLeod’s Capacity Manager ensures that carriers get the best possible outbound density and the best sequencing to minimize pedal miles. Revenue by movement is also transparent for each day’s plan.

Running a More Efficient Cross Dock

Complete visual management of the dock with LoadMaster LTL helps carriers minimize movement, direct cross, and minimize yard traffic while preventing loading errors. Using LoadMaster LTL’s mobile device for dock workers, along with the systems visualization for doors and lot planning, plus real-time movement control within the facility all combine to give carriers a new level of efficient freight management inside the dock.

Effectively Using Interline Partners

By automating partner assignments and rating for regions, carriers can use their network to scale the coverage and service they offer customers. At the same time, LoadMaster LTL’s rating automation provides correct splits for pricing and billing. Being able to efficiently and accurately work with your partners for P&D, or full trailer exchange points, helps carriers reap the value of their network to serve customers.
