Container freight station bookings,
simplified.
FreightReserve gives your CFS one platform to manage collection timeslots, automate storage charges and release cargo only once it is paid for. Less congestion at the dock, less revenue left on the table.
Trusted by logistics operators
Manual collections
cost you twice.
A CFS lives or dies on turnaround. When collection runs on phone calls, paper delivery orders and a single counter PC, trucks bank up, storage revenue slips through the cracks and your team spends the day firefighting instead of moving freight.
Trucks queue at the dock
Drivers turn up whenever they like, carriers complain about wait times and the yard backs up at peak.
Storage revenue leaks
Free time and daily accruals tracked by hand are easy to miss, so chargeable days go unbilled.
Cargo leaves unpaid
Releasing before payment means chasing invoices after the goods are already gone.
The counter is the bottleneck
Staff field calls, emails and paperwork all day instead of releasing cargo quickly.
No clean audit trail
Charge disputes drag on when there is no record of who collected what, and when.
Devan to collection,
fully automated.
One workflow that takes a consignment from the container floor to a paid, logged collection without a phone call.
