Dispatch plans live in a group chat — one missed message and a truck leaves half empty.
Dedicated Line Haul
You run fixed routes on a fixed schedule, consolidating loose freight into full trucks — on-time delivery is your reputation, and one lost shipment costs you trust, not just money.
The three biggest headaches
A customer asks "where is my freight?" and dispatch has to call drivers one by one to find out.
Consolidation costing is a blur — nobody can say for sure whether this truckload actually made money.
