TruckTA
Car hauler dispatch software

Dispatch every car hauler from one live board.

The Active Board groups work by driver and shows each trailer's open spots, day by day. Assign a load with a click or a drag, flag problems, plan a driver's route, and watch teammates' changes arrive without a refresh.

Capacity planning

See every trailer's open spots before you take the next load.

Each driver row carries a planning card for today, every delivery day and any day a spot was moved: Spots used against the trailer's capacity, Picked already loaded, and where the deliveries land. The card's color tells the state at a glance.

Spots Today
One button estimates open pickup spots for Today and Tomorrow from trailer capacity, vehicles on board, delivery openings and who is working, and suggests up to two nearby unassigned pickups per driver. It is planning only and changes nothing.
Move a spot to tomorrow
Push one open pickup spot to the next day, or pull it back, right on the planning card.
Not working
Mark a driver not working until a date up to 90 days out. They stay on the board, and assigning them asks first.
Your colors
Each planning-card state has a company color, set once in Load Settings.
Work the board

Assign, update and flag work without leaving the board.

Everything a dispatcher does all day happens on the row in front of them, and the Unassigned, Warehouse, Problems, To Invoice and Awaiting Payment tabs keep every queue one click away, with counts.

  • Assign with the + or a drag

    The + on a driver lists Recommended for this driver first, with a badge counting matching pickups. Or drag a load onto the driver's row.

  • Warnings, not walls

    Over capacity, Not working or a missing date asks for confirmation. None of them blocks the assignment.

  • Edit right in the row

    Status, Terms, Driver and Dispatcher save in place. Each needs its permission: Change status, Edit load payment, Assign drivers, Assign dispatchers.

  • Everything in the row menu

    Open or expand the load, send it to the driver, reschedule the pickup, copy the Load ID or VINs, report or resolve a problem, archive.

  • Select many at once

    Check loads to assign a driver or dispatcher, change status, send to drivers or archive them together.

  • Payment actions where they apply

    Invoice, payment, dispute, hold, write-off and paperwork actions appear only when they are valid for that load and your permissions.

Four layouts

One board, read four ways.

By Driver for capacity, Day Timeline for what moves when, Week Grid for the week ahead, and Table View for sorting and columns. Filter drivers to Needs loads, Has room, Full, Over Capacity or Not working. Everyone can hide columns and save their layout as their default.

Driver route planner

Plan a driver's route from their row.

Up to 20 stops. Optimize reorders them, or keeps your order, on a truck-aware route with National Weather Service alerts along the way. Add a warehouse, hand off to Google Maps, or copy, text, email and print the plan for the driver.

Route plans never change loads, assignments or money.

Loads in

Loads arrive ready to dispatch.

  • Smart Load Import: drop in a rate confirmation PDF, or a photo when TruckTA AI is on. The load is filled in for your review and starts unassigned.
  • TruckTA Load Importer for Chrome brings in one reviewed load at a time from Central Dispatch and Super Dispatch pages.
  • Load Opportunities collects offers from your notification email into New, Contacted and Dismissed, with a Fits chip when a pickup is within 25 miles of a driver's stop and the delivery within 50 miles of theirs.
  • Nothing is ever booked automatically. Every load waits for a person.

With TruckTA AI, Today's dispatch analysis ranks open spots and matches, and Suggest full plan proposes pairings. Each assignment still waits for your confirmation.

Built for a dispatch team

A whole team on one board, without stepping on each other.

  • No refresh: a row a teammate changed is outlined for a moment.
  • The board reconnects and catches up on its own.
  • Editing now shows who is working on which part of a load.
  • Your draft is never overwritten: Compare latest, Reapply my draft or Use latest.
  • A rejected save puts the previous value back and says why on that row.
  • Permissions decide who changes status, terms, drivers and dispatchers.
From unassigned to delivered

One connected record, from the first assignment to final delivery.

Stage 01 — unassigned
Waiting on a dispatcher decision.

The load arrives with its vehicles, route and pickup timing, typed in or read from a rate confirmation. It waits in Unassigned, visible, until someone chooses a driver.

Fictional demo load. Dispatchers and drivers record each step; nothing changes on its own.

Dispatch, in practice

Built around how car-hauler dispatch actually runs.

One board for the people planning the work, the equipment moving it, and the loads waiting on a decision. It works with the Driver App on the road and the live map in the office.
