ShipNexus tracks each container from port pickup to return, applies your rates and fees, then produces customer billing and driver payroll from the same completed move.
30-day free trial · No credit card required
Track every container from port pickup through delivery. Full status history — available, in transit, at customer, returned.
Create and manage bookings tied to containers and customers. Assign drivers, schedule pickups, and track every handoff.
Generate invoices from completed bookings. Per-mile rates, fuel surcharges, port fees — all computed automatically.
Calculate driver pay from trips using configurable charge codes. Mileage, per-diem, fuel — all tracked and export-ready.
Full customer and billing entity directory. Multiple contacts per account, separate billing addresses, payment terms per customer.
Define geographic pricing zones and per-mile rates. The correct rate for any origin–destination pair is applied automatically.
Full Fleet GPS tracking included. Real-time map, 10-second pings, geofence alerts — every container and every truck, live.
Drivers receive drayage jobs on the same app as fleet jobs. GPS tracking runs in the background throughout.
Jobs are automatically assigned to the driver with the lightest current workload — the same smart dispatch engine as Fleet, fully integrated.
Create a booking for a customer, attach the container number, set the port of origin and destination. The system knows your per-mile rate for that pricing zone.
As the driver updates trip status in the mobile app, the container status advances automatically — from booked through picked up, in transit, delivered, and returned.
On delivery, the system generates a customer invoice from trip data: base rate, fuel surcharge, port fees, and any charge codes you've configured. Driver payroll is calculated simultaneously.
No two drayage carriers run the same way. So the booking and container screens aren't fixed — the status tabs, the table columns, and the form fields all bend to fit how you actually work. We configure it with you during onboarding, and you can adjust any of it yourself anytime.
Group bookings and containers into tabbed views by status — Available, At Port, In Transit, Delivered, Returned, or whatever stages your business uses. Rename them, reorder them, add your own. Each tab shows a live count so dispatchers see the whole board at a glance.
Pick which fields appear in the booking and container tables, set their order, and save different column layouts for different roles. Your dispatchers see lean operational columns; billing sees the financial ones. No scrolling past data nobody on that screen needs.
Add custom fields to the booking and container forms — reference numbers, special handling notes, customer-specific codes, anything your operation records today on paper or in spreadsheets. Mark fields required, group them into sections, and they flow straight through to tracking, invoicing, and reports.
Every Drayage account gets a free document setup session during onboarding. We build your PDF templates for both shipment orders and invoices — logo, payment terms, bank details, charge layout — before your first one goes out. Need a change later? You can edit any template yourself, anytime.
After signing up, you'll get a link to a simple form. Upload your logo and tell us your billing preferences — takes about 5 minutes.
Our team applies your settings to both your shipment order and invoice templates. We send you sample PDFs — usually within one business day — for your review.
Once you approve the samples, your templates are live and every document looks exactly right. Want to tweak a note or swap bank details later? Edit any template yourself — no deployment, no ticket.
