Haulage & HGV operators
24/7 phone cover for haulage and HGV operators
Haulage runs on a phone that does not respect office hours. Backload offers, breakdowns, RDC turnaround problems and drivers who need a decision at 2am all arrive on the same line, and the ones you miss are the margin.
Hear it handle a callWhen the calls actually go missing
- Overnight, when a driver is stuck at a closed RDC and needs an answer now
- When the transport manager is driving, on the yard, or already on the other line
- Backload offers, which go to whoever confirms first and nobody else
- Weekends, when the trucks still roll but the office does not
What the agent handles
- Backload and spot-hire offers: lane, dates, weight, vehicle type, rate offered
- Driver calls triaged, genuine emergencies escalated to a duty phone, everything else logged
- Breakdown and incident reports captured in full so nothing is lost in a groggy retelling
- New customer and subcontractor enquiries qualified before they reach you
What one missed call costs
An empty return leg is a fixed cost with no revenue against it. One captured backload a week changes the shape of the month.
Haulage & HGV operators: common questions
- Can it tell an emergency from a routine call at 2am?
- Yes, and that is the point. You define what counts as urgent, breakdown, accident, refused load, and only those wake anybody up. Everything else is logged for the morning.
- Will it handle drivers with strong accents or a noisy cab?
- It is built for real phone conditions rather than a quiet studio. Where a detail is unclear it asks the caller to confirm rather than guessing, and the full recording and transcript are in your dashboard.
- Can it take a rate and confirm a load?
- It captures the offer in full and can confirm against rules you set. Anything outside those rules is flagged to you rather than committed on your behalf.

Other sectors we cover
Courier & same-day deliveryA single same-day job is typically worth more than a week of answering-service cost, and the customer who books it once tends to keep ringing the same number.Pallet network depotsOne regular pallet account is worth thousands a year. Losing it because nobody picked up at 5:20pm is the most expensive kind of quiet.Freight forwardingA forwarding quote request is a live buying signal with a short shelf life. Answering it six hours later is usually answering it too late.Removals & storageOne booked house move is worth more than a month of cover. Missing three enquiries a week is a business-shaped hole.
