Appointment-Plus can help organize and streamline your shipping dock scheduling for incoming or outgoing loads.

Drivers or shippers can schedule loading/unloading times via a Web interface. Or, if they don't have Internet access, then can call into a dispatcher or central scheduler to schedule (or be assigned) specific times for loading or unloading. This helps reduce downtime for drivers and improves dock efficiency. This can help save time and money for both shippers and consignees.

And, the logistics software is flexible. Dock times can be scheduled all the way down to every 5 minutes. You can also control whether you allow same-day scheduling or if a one-day or multi-day buffer is required.
