Uber for my freight? Online trucking service
This is the 21st century! I am from supply chain management, we are living in the digital age and you are reading this on the internet! If someone told me that people from diverse backgrounds would collaborate from a mile away! I would have called that person crazy and asked for ways to make my work easy.
It’s the digital age, it’s growing fast and I am here to tell you how digitalization got the best of supply chain management through online trucking service. If you were being raised by a pack of wolves under a rock for the past few years then you probably don’t know that Pakistan is the trucking app country. This means that supply chain management has become easier than it was in the past.
How it all started!
Well, I am a lazy person who doesn’t like to put an extra effort when there are multiple solutions online. And I can justify that by asking you to recall the cell number of 3 of your friends without looking in your contact list. See what I did there?
So, I was tired of going to the local truck stops to book freight trucks for my company. One day I was casually scrolling through my laptop’s screen when I heard that the truck driver was late. Now before you go judgmental and say that I am careless, let me tell you that I called him multiple times to check-in on his arrival time but he delayed. So, long story short I went on the internet to search for a way to track my drivers.
I found something better!
So upon rigorously searching the web in search of a way to book trucks online, I came face to face with cheap truck rental companies! Nothing new here until I saw this tiny beacon of light (button) that said: “book online”!
There are only 2 situations when I move from my chair during office hours, Lunch and off time. But this magnificent button made history that day by making me jump off my seat for the 3rd time. My coworkers were shocked to see me standing before lunchtime. If I am allowed to exaggerate than I’d say one of them went into a shock-induced coma.
I’ll tell you the features of these trucking freight apps with their names to cut a long story short!
1 MTO! (My Truck Online)
This is the first web that showed up in my result when I made the typo of the “trucking app in Pakistan” rather than “the tracking app” and that was the best typo of my life. MTO is an application that is created to book rental trucks for transportation of freight from one point to another.
They have options to pre-define the weight of your items and best of all they provide live tracking of your booking. They also have technical support that is 24/7 available if there is any problem with your delivery.
2.Truck ADA
Truck ADA is taken from the Urdu language where ADA means home (For people who don’t know). Truck ada is the same as MTO. The minor difference between the two is that truck ada claims to be certified by someone (God knows who).
3.Truck Load!
It’s just like other trucking service providers in Pakistan with online booking and everything. But what makes it different from others is the spot rates page that shows transportation rates for major routes and saves our time!
Okay, so what are the benefits of this?
These online businesses are taking over brick and mortar industries because of their convenience and their ease of use. These online trucking service apps are amazing for the users because of their,
- Tracking service that keeps a check on your freight
- Safety of your cargo by the trucking company
- Ease of use and tracking
- Economical rates with no more bargaining to find your desired rates.
- 24/7 Technical support where all queries are dealt with!
So if you are as efficient as me and want to ease your workload through automation, check this app out.
