Stop Losing Carriers to Dock Chaos.

Dock Optimizer eliminates the root cause of detention: uncoordinated arrivals that stack carriers in your yard while a dock door sits idle. By assigning every carrier a specific door and time window — and enforcing it — trucks move in and out on schedule. Customers like Hanzo Logistics have cut detention charges 70% and reduced shipping & receiving time 20% with Dock Optimizer.

Yes. 3PLs can segment dock doors by client account, freight type, or product category. Each client's carriers book into their designated doors and time windows independently, with no visibility into other clients' schedules. You maintain control of the master schedule while each client sees only their own activity.

Carriers receive a booking link in advance and check themselves in via smartphone when they arrive at the facility. Dock Optimizer validates their arrival against the booked appointment window using geo-fencing. Your yard staff receive a real-time notification — no radio calls, no gatehouse bottleneck, no paper logs to reconcile.

Dock Optimizer focuses on the physical dock layer — scheduling, check-in, and documentation — and exports clean, structured data that can be piped into your WMS, TMS, or customer portals via CSV or API. It complements your existing WMS rather than replacing it, with no disruptive system migration required.

Most 3PL facilities are fully operational within 5–10 business days. There is no hardware to install. Your existing carrier base self-onboards through a booking link you distribute. Dock staff manage everything through a web dashboard accessible from any device, with no IT project required.
