Haulage dispatch software for busy transport offices.

Create and assign haulage work, send job details to drivers, record progress and keep delivery evidence visible to the office without relying on disconnected updates.

Dispatch and POD are available from HauliK Fleet. Planning board and manifests are Ultra-only.

Dispatch workflow

Give the office and driver one version of the job

Structure the work before it leaves the office, then retain the updates and evidence drivers record while carrying it out.

Create structured haulage jobs

Record references, customer details, instructions, collection and delivery stops, scheduled times and operational notes.

Manage multi-stop work

Build Journeys with ordered collection and delivery stops, while simpler runs can use the faster single-job workflow.

Assign drivers and assets

Select the driver, vehicle and trailer from the job. VOR assets remain blocked and recorded expiry issues are highlighted.

Send work to the driver app

Assigned drivers receive job details in the mobile app and can record progress, stop activity, issues and messages.

Capture delivery evidence

Keep recipient details, signatures and photos where required with the relevant delivery stop and job record.

Review job history

The office can review status changes, arrivals, departures, issues and other recorded job events in chronological order.

From office to driver

A practical dispatch sequence

HauliK supports the operational handover between office teams and drivers. It does not make route choices or dispatch decisions on the operator's behalf.

  1. 01

    Build the job

    Create a Fast Job or multi-stop Journey with operational details and timings.

  2. 02

    Check the assignment

    Assign the driver, vehicle and trailer after reviewing warnings based on recorded compliance dates.

  3. 03

    Driver carries out the work

    The app presents the assigned job and records driver-entered progress and stop activity.

  4. 04

    Office reviews the outcome

    Status history and POD evidence remain available with the job instead of being split across messages and folders.

Office visibility

See the recorded job history without chasing updates

Job and stop updates entered through HauliK remain available to the transport office. This is operational visibility, not continuous GPS vehicle tracking.

  • Current recorded job status
  • Assigned driver, vehicle and trailer
  • Ordered collection and delivery stops
  • Scheduled, arrival, departure and completion times where recorded
  • Job events, issue reports and trailer changes
  • POD recipient, signature and photo evidence where captured
Built for haulage

More context than a generic schedule

A calendar can show that work exists. A haulage dispatch record also needs to show the customer, stops, assigned driver and assets, operational status and resulting POD.

Assignment safeguards

Recorded driver and asset dates can produce warnings, while VOR vehicles and trailers remain blocked from assignment.

Driver-facing detail

The mobile app carries the job and stop information drivers need, with messages kept inside the platform.

Pro job import

Pro and Ultra can create planned, unassigned jobs from CSV or XLSX batches for later review and assignment.

Ultra planning tools

Ultra adds the visual planning board and printable job manifests. These tools organise work; they do not optimise routes.

FAQ

Haulage dispatch software questions

What is haulage dispatch software?
Haulage dispatch software helps a transport office create work, organise collections and deliveries, assign drivers and assets, send job details to drivers and retain status and delivery records. HauliK connects this workflow to its driver app and wider fleet records.
Can HauliK dispatch multi-stop jobs?
Yes. HauliK Journeys support ordered collection and delivery stops with timing and activity records. Fast Jobs are available for simpler work.
Does HauliK show live vehicle locations?
No. HauliK records driver-entered job and stop updates, but it is not a telematics or continuous GPS tracking platform and does not present live vehicle locations.
Does HauliK optimise routes or schedule work automatically?
No. HauliK helps office teams create jobs, organise stops, manage assignments and use an Ultra planning board. It does not provide route optimisation, traffic-based planning, AI scheduling or automated dispatch decisions.
Which plan includes haulage dispatch?
Jobs, dispatch, customer/location records, driver messaging and POD are included from the Fleet plan. Pro adds bulk job import. Ultra adds the planning board, printable manifests and customer invoicing from delivered jobs.
