FTL Truckload Tracker
Milestone board for ftl truckload moves — 7 mode-specific statuses from booking to completion.
Sources & references
- Carrier/operator milestone notification practices for the mode
- DCSA / IATA / mode-specific event standards where applicable
This tracker stores data locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded. It complements (not replaces) carrier track-and-trace: enter milestones from your carrier's notifications to keep one consolidated, private view across all providers.
Every load you have moving deserves one row somewhere you control. FTL Truckload — full truckload — one trailer, one shipper, door to door with no terminal touches — goes dark in the gaps between its custodians' systems; this consolidated milestone board is the gap-filler, stored privately in your browser.
About FTL Truckload Tracker
Mode knowledge the statuses encode: FTL tracking is driver tracking: the load is wherever the truck is, ELD/telematics pings replace milestones, and the operational risks are pickup punctuality and the delivery appointment, not network handoffs. Work it as a daily two-minute scan: anything with a stale status gets chased, anything at a cost-bearing stage gets actioned, anything delivered gets closed with its dates intact. The history that accumulates is the lane's true transit distribution — more useful than any published schedule.

Frequently asked questions
What should FTL check calls actually confirm?+
Three things at fixed times: loaded and rolling (with piece count and seal number), midpoint progress versus the delivery appointment (ahead/behind and by how much), and delivered with POD. Everything else is noise — FTL has no terminals to lose freight in, so tracking exists to protect the two appointments at the ends.
Which ftl truckload milestones matter most?+
The cost-bearing and decision-bearing ones — for this mode, watch in transit (where dwell starts costing) and the transition into delivered / pod (where the record closes). Rows that stall between those two stages are the ones worth a phone call today rather than a report next month.
Where does the milestone data come from?+
From the notifications your providers already send — booking confirmations, departure notices, arrival/availability alerts, PODs. This board is the consolidation layer you control: thirty seconds per update keeps one view current across every provider, which no single carrier's portal can give you.
Is the data shared with anyone?+
No — records persist in your browser's localStorage and never touch a server, which makes the board safe for commercially sensitive routings, volumes and customer names. The CSV export exists for the moments you DO want to share: a snapshot to a colleague, a dataset to your analyst, a status report to a client.
