Bulkloads.com, The Largest Bulk Freight-Matching Marketplace, launched the newest version of the most popular mobile app for Bulk Truckers as part of an aggressive plan to bring useful technology to the Bulk Trucking Industry.

“We’ve completely redesigned and redeveloped our mobile app from the ground up as part of our plan for future tech growth. Using new technologies, we’re now able to bring new and useful mobile features to market 3x faster than we have been able to in the past.” said Matt Fredin, co-founder and Head of Technology at Bulkloads.com. “Now that we have our base features redeveloped, we’re on a fast-track to adding new features that so many have been requesting”.

Bulkloads will use the mobile app as part of a plan to make the load lifecycle easier and more efficient for all parties and is currently developing a fully-integrated solution to ease the pain-points of procuring qualified carriers, on-boarding, communication, load assignment, load tracking, facility wait times, document scanning, invoicing and payments. This open platform includes a Shipper TMS system as well as a full set of APIs to allow Shippers to interact with it using their own systems, if they choose.

Bulkloads wants their mobile app to be useful to carriers no matter if they are paying for access to the BulkLoads marketplace or not. If a carrier has dedicated runs with shippers or brokers, they can still use the app completely free. Viewing private loads that shippers have given them access to, rate negotiation, booking, load tracking, document scanning, invoicing and payments as well as washout locations and forums are all completely free features on the app.

“We invision our mobile app being the only app a bulk carrier needs”, stated Jared Flinn, co-founder and President of Bulkloads.com. “Carriers don’t want to have to download and learn a different app and process for each one of their customers. We are providing a universal app that can be used by all carriers and shippers no matter what their situation is. Shippers don’t have to take on the huge monetary expense and headache of designing, developing, maintaining and supporting their own app. We’re doing all of that for them and bringing them a huge pool of carriers as well.”
