How it runs

Manifest to doorstep, five moves.

Every move is scanned, so your CX team and your customer see the same status at the same time.

01

Manifest

You dispatch as normal. Labels and manifest land with us the moment they are printed.

02

Pick up

A booked window at your dock — daily, twice daily, or on call during peak.

03

Sort

Scanned into zone and run the same night. Exceptions are named, not silent.

04

On the run

Drivers who know the street, the loading dock and the back gate. Live ETA to the customer.

05

Delivered

Proof of delivery and photo on every parcel. Returns collected on the next pass.
