Dispatch software for one truck, not a fleet
LaneQuarters is the first dispatch platform designed around the trucker running solo — with one or two trucks — instead of the 50-truck operation.
Why we're building it
In freight, a broker finds a truck to move a shipper's load. The carrier who accepts it can be a big fleet — or an owner-operator who owns their truck and works independently. In a large fleet, a dedicated dispatcher plans loads, coordinates with the broker, and chases paperwork. For an owner-operator, the dispatcher and the driver are usually the same person, often working from the cab or the kitchen table.
The software built for this job — McLeod, TMW, and the rest — was made for large fleets. It's expensive, complex, and treats the owner-operator as a second-class user. So most solo truckers run their entire business out of an inbox, a glovebox, and a string of text messages. LaneQuarters attacks that gap.
Three pains we heard over and over
Paperwork everywhere
The BOL, POD, and rate con scattered across email, texts, and the glovebox — never where it's needed when it's needed.
Constant interruptions
The broker wants a check-in every hour — position and ETA — while the driver is behind the wheel.
Loads that don't work for you
Hauling to places you don't want to be, driving empty miles, and losing home time. Reacting instead of planning.
Our approach
We answer each pain directly: centralize the documents, keep the broker posted without stopping to type, and give the dispatcher — often the driver themselves — real tools to plan loads that respect their life. Confirm a load and the trip sheet builds itself: route, ETA, and every document in one place. The broker hears at pickup and delivery, and gets the new ETA when a delay comes up. On delivery, one tap sends the POD, and the invoice goes out from the same load.
The tagline says it best: keep every load moving, with less busywork.
