For logistics & freight companies

Live tracking. Self-serve rates.
One client per market.

The logistics & freight companies we work with don't lose shippers to "call for a quote." Their self-serve rate calculator, live tracking portal, and customer-self-service hub turn anonymous traffic into booked lanes.

What I build for logistics & freight

Six things every freight business actually needs.

Most "logistics website" templates give you a hero, a list of services, and a phone number. The freight companies we work with need more than that.

Container port tracking01 · Tracking
01

Live tracking portal, for shippers.

Real-time status on every shipment, with carrier handoff timestamps and an exception dashboard. Shippers stop calling dispatch to ask where their freight is — they see it themselves.

  • Per-shipment live tracking with carrier handoff events
  • Exception dashboard (delays, missed handoffs, customs holds)
  • Self-serve "where's my freight" without calling dispatch
  • Email & SMS notifications at every handoff
Set up tracking
Freight calculator02 · Calculator
02

Freight-class calculator, self-serve.

Shippers self-quote. NMFC class lookup, weight, dimensions, origin/destination zip — instant rate estimate with the lane's spot price. No phone call required for the initial quote.

  • NMFC class lookup by commodity
  • Weight & dimension-based rate calculation
  • Spot-price lane estimates
  • "Get a firm quote" escalation to sales on complex lanes
Build the calculator
Night delivery lane03 · Lanes
03

Lane pages — that rank for "trucking near me."

Each major lane gets a dedicated page — origin, destination, transit time, equipment type, service level. The freight SEO play that brings the right shippers to the right lanes.

  • Per-lane SEO pages (city-to-city)
  • Transit time, equipment, service-level filtering
  • Local SEO signals for the markets you serve
  • Schema.org FreightService markup
Plan lane pages
Warehouse boxes04 · Self-serve
04

Customer self-service hub, not a phone tree.

Schedule pickups, generate BOLs, view invoices, dispute accessorials, request re-delivery. The 80% of calls that don't need a human get handled by the site.

  • Pickup scheduling with real-time slot availability
  • BOL & invoice generation per shipment
  • Accessorial dispute submission with photo upload
  • Re-delivery & reschedule without a phone call
Build the hub
Delivery handoff05 · Handoff
05

Driver handoff flow, documented.

Photo proof-of-pickup, photo proof-of-delivery, e-signature, GPS timestamp. The dispute-rate drops because the documentation is unchallengeable.

  • Photo POD with GPS & timestamp metadata
  • E-signature on delivery
  • Driver-side mobile app integration (your existing TMS or a new one)
  • Auto-archive of all handoff documentation
Wire up handoff
Logistics team06 · Team
06

The team — real dispatchers, real drivers.

Logistics is a trust business. Showing the actual dispatchers, account managers, and terminal leads — the people shippers will talk to when freight needs to move — closes deals before the first quote.

  • Per-terminal team profiles with photos & coverage areas
  • Account manager profiles with direct contact
  • Driver appreciation content (where appropriate)
  • Careers page for dispatch & driver hiring

A logistics build, in motion

A freight site, in motion.

A short reel from a logistics client engagement — site rebuild, tracking portal rewrite, and the self-serve rate calculator that turned phone-call quotes into booked lanes.
