How it works

Drivers can view their routes on the LoadRoute screen.

**All routes for a specific day are available to the driver.**

Delivered items are scanned at every stop for ZERO errors. No items ever remain on trucks. Drivers are warned if they try to deliver too many items to a customer, don’t complete the order, or scan the wrong product.

Alerts the driver when an item is scanned from a different stop. — **The POD system will alert drivers if there are any problems, preventing delivery errors.**

As the driver unloads each item, the screen updates with how many items are left to be delivered at that stop. The system gives the driver address, contact and order information. The screen shows number of cooler, freezer and dry pieces.

**View stop information, including address, contact information, and pieces by temperature.**

With the POD system, you can see real-time updates on driver activity.
