Dock scheduling software

Every truck. Every door.
One live board.

DockFlow replaces the spreadsheet, the phone tag, and the radio chatter with a live dock schedule your whole operation runs on — from the office to the warehouse wall.

What is DockFlow

The schedule your dock actually follows.

Most docks still run on a shared spreadsheet, a wall calendar, and someone's memory. Trucks stack up at 8 AM, doors sit empty at 2 PM, and nobody finds out about the reefer until it's idling in the yard.

DockFlow puts every appointment on a live board — organized by door, by time, and by status, from scheduled to checked in to complete. Carriers request their own slots, schedulers approve with one click, and the wall-mounted TV board keeps the floor in sync all day.

No installs, no IT project, no training week. It runs in the browser you already have.

Product tour

Built around the board.

Real screens from DockFlow — not mockups.

01 / THE DOCK GRID

See every door, every slot, at a glance.

Columns are doors, rows are time slots. Inbound is blue, outbound is violet, and status is always visible — checked in, in progress, complete. Click any empty slot to book it; DockFlow flags overlapping appointments before you double-book a door.

02 / SELF-SERVICE + APPROVALS

Carriers book themselves. You stay in control.

Drivers and carriers get their own login and request slots directly — no phone calls, no email chains. Requests land on your Today dashboard as pending, and one click approves or declines them.

  • Morning-briefing KPIs: inbound, outbound, on site, completed
  • Pending requests surfaced front and center
  • Role-based access for admins, schedulers, and drivers

03 / ZOOM OUT

Week and month views for planning ahead.

Flip to the week to balance load across doors, or to the month to spot your heavy days before they happen — every busy day carries a booking count badge.

04 / PROOF, NOT VIBES

Reports that write themselves.

Every booking becomes data: carrier performance, dock utilization, completion and cancellation rates, peak arrival hours, daily volume. Filter any date range and export every table to CSV in one click.

From the office to the wall.

A full dark mode for control rooms and late shifts — plus a TV mode that turns any wall screen into a live dock board: who's on site, who's up next, refreshing automatically.

Why DockFlow

Lighter than the enterprise suites.
Smarter than the spreadsheet.

Dock scheduling shouldn't take a six-month rollout — or a shared spreadsheet and crossed fingers.
