Warehouse Load Planning & Outbound Dock Execution Software

Built for scale-ready trailers from dock to delivery.

Loadly is the outbound execution layer between your WMS and the delivery door. Build axle-balanced trailer plans, guide loaders row by row, adjust pallets live, capture proof-of-load records, and carry every load through scale, rework, and delivery — all from one dashboard.

WMS Integration Ready

From final pick to load plan.

Connect Loadly to your WMS through site-approved APIs, SFTP, CSV, or approved data feeds. When the final pallet is picked, Loadly can receive the completed load data — LPNs, pallet weights, destinations, stops, trailer, door, and load ID — and automatically generate an axle-balanced trailer plan for the dock team.

No waiting on spreadsheets. No manual pallet entry. The load plan is ready when the freight is ready.

  • Pull completed load data directly from your WMS or TMS
  • Generate dock-ready load plans when the final pallet is picked
  • Import LPNs, pallet weights, stops, destinations, doors, trailers, and load IDs
  • Reduce manual entry, planning delays, and last-minute load decisions
  • Support API, SFTP, CSV, and site-approved integration methods
  • Keep Loadly as the execution layer without replacing the WMS

Dock Execution Features

Everything your team needs between final pick and dispatch.

Scan or Upload
Scan shipping labels or upload a packing list to start the load plan. Loadly captures LPNs, pallet weights, and destinations so your dock team can plan faster with less manual entry.
Axle-Balanced Plans
Loadly generates multiple axle-aware loading strategies and ranks them by weight distribution, trailer utilization, stop sequence, and configured compliance limits.
Multi-Stop Sequencing
Loadly sequences multi-stop trailers so first-stop freight loads near the doors and later-stop freight stays deeper in the trailer, helping reduce driver re-handling at delivery.
Scale-Ready Before Dispatch
Estimate steer, drive, tandem, gross, and payload utilization before dispatch using your configured tractor, trailer, and jurisdiction settings. Loadly can be configured for federal, state, provincial, customer, and fleet-specific limits.

Live Dock Adjustments

Move a pallet. Watch the axles re-balance.

Loadly starts with a scale-ready plan, but the dock controls the final execution. If a fragile pallet needs to ride near the doors, a single-layer pallet needs a safer position, or an equivalent-weight pallet is easier to access, operators can adjust the trailer map in real time. Loadly recalculates steer, drive, tandem, gross weight, and utilization with every move.

  • Tap one pallet, tap another — they swap instantly.
  • Steer, drive, tandem, gross, and utilization bars update live with each move.
  • Modified pallets are marked on the trailer map for visibility.
  • Revert to the original Loadly plan at any time.
  • Every adjustment stays tied to the saved load record.

Proof-of-Load Records

Row-by-row documentation for every outbound trailer.

As the loader works from nose to doors, Loadly captures photos by row and ties each image to the final trailer plan. Supervisors can review the floor map, pallet data, photos, timestamps, and load status from the web dashboard. When a shipper claims damage, missing freight, or loading issues, the proof record is ready in seconds.

  • Capture multiple photos per row.
  • Attach damage photos before the trailer leaves.
  • View proof photos beside the final trailer map.
  • Export a Loadly Proof Packet for claims, disputes, and internal review.
  • Keep records organized by load ID, trailer, lane, date, site, and status.
  • Store records securely in your private Loadly workspace with role-based access.

Driver Companion App

The proof follows the load out of the yard.

Your dock builds the plan, and the driver carries the load record into the field. Without creating an account, the driver can open a load by its Load ID, review the approved plan and axle estimates, photograph the trailer number, tandems, and 5th wheel position, record scale results, complete rework loops when needed, and capture proof-of-delivery photos. Every photo, timestamp, scale result, and delivery update flows back to the Loadly dashboard.

  • No login required — drivers open loads by unique Load ID.
  • Review the approved trailer plan and axle-weight estimates.
  • Photograph trailer number, tandem position, and 5th wheel position.
  • Upload scale-ticket photos and record actual axle weights.
  • Failed scale checks trigger a required rework and re-scale workflow.
  • Capture proof-of-delivery photos and delivery timeline events.
  • All driver activity flows back to the dashboard and Proof Packet.
  • Native app on iPhone, installable web app on Android.

Scale Ticket Reconciliation

Compare planned weights against actual scale results.

Loadly does not stop when the trailer leaves the dock. Drivers can upload a scale-ticket photo from the companion app, and Loadly records the actual steer, drive, tandem, and gross weights against the approved load plan. If the trailer is overweight, Loadly creates a rework loop that requires correction, re-scaling, and a new scale-ticket photo before the load can be marked ready for delivery.

  • Upload scale-ticket photos from the driver companion app
  • Record steer, drive, tandem, gross, and timestamp
  • Compare actual scale results against the approved Loadly plan
  • Flag overweight or high-risk axle groups
  • Create a required rework and re-scale loop for failed loads
  • Save every scale ticket to the Loadly Proof Packet
  • Track scale variance by trailer, tractor, lane, customer, loader, and site
  • Use historical scale results to improve future trailer and tractor profiles

  • Upload a packing list to pre-stage a load for the dock
  • View saved loads by date, weight, trailer, lane, site, and status
  • Mark loads compliant, rework-needed, scaled, delivered, or disputed
  • Review axle analysis after the load is saved
  • Compare planned weights against scale-ticket results
  • See trailer utilization and unused payload capacity
  • Pull up row-by-row photos for dispute support
  • Export Loadly Proof Packets for claims and internal review
  • Track trends by site, lane, customer, trailer, and team

* Achievable when Loadly's loading plan is followed, configured correctly for your tractors, trailers, and jurisdiction settings, and supported by accurate pallet weight data. Net ROI excludes the one-time Implementation & Onboarding fee. Savings are estimates based on your inputs and configurable assumptions; actual results vary by fleet, labor rates, detention costs, claims, scale-ticket requirements, pallet data accuracy, and operating procedures.

Managed Dock Hardware

Loadly-ready iPads for every dock team.

Loadly can provide managed iPads preloaded with the Loadly app, rugged cases, screen protection, device management, and multi-device charging stations. Customers can bring their own devices or use Loadly-managed hardware for a faster rollout.

  • Loadly app preloaded on each iPad
  • Rugged cases and screen protectors included

Implementation & Onboarding

Configured around your trailers, tractors, lanes, and dock process.

Every site has different equipment, rules, and loading habits. Loadly onboarding helps configure trailer profiles, tractor settings, axle limits, jurisdiction rules, user roles, WMS data feeds, driver workflows, proof records, and reporting before the first live load.

  • Tractor and trailer profile setup
  • Jurisdiction and fleet-specific limit configuration
  • User roles and site access
  • WMS, TMS, CSV, SFTP, or API data mapping
  • Dock workflow setup and training
  • Driver companion app setup
  • Proof Packet and dashboard configuration
  • Pilot loads and scale-ticket calibration

Loadly is the execution layer between your WMS and the driver leaving the yard.

Your WMS knows what needs to ship. Loadly helps your dock team decide how to load it, balance it, adjust it, document it, scale it, and prove what happened.

FAQ

Common questions.

Can Loadly connect to our WMS or TMS?
Yes. Loadly is WMS integration ready and can connect through site-approved APIs, SFTP, CSV, or approved data feeds. Once access is approved, Loadly can receive completed load data such as LPNs, pallet weights, destinations, stops, trailer, door, and load ID.
Can Loadly generate a load plan when the final pallet is picked?
Yes. When connected to your WMS or approved data feed, Loadly can receive the completed picked load and automatically generate an axle-balanced trailer plan for the dock team.
Does Loadly replace our WMS?
No. Loadly sits between your WMS and the driver leaving the yard. Your WMS manages orders, inventory, picking, and shipping data. Loadly helps execute the outbound load plan, balance the trailer, document the load, and track scale/rework events.
Can drivers upload scale tickets?
Yes. Drivers can upload scale-ticket photos through the companion app. Loadly records the actual axle and gross weights against the approved plan and saves the ticket to the load record.
What happens if a trailer scales overweight?
Loadly can create a rework loop that requires the issue to be corrected, the trailer to be re-scaled, and a new scale-ticket photo to be uploaded before the load can be marked ready for delivery.
What is a Loadly Proof Packet?
A Loadly Proof Packet is the final record of a load. It can include the trailer plan, pallet data, axle analysis, row-by-row photos, driver photos, scale tickets, rework history, delivery proof, timestamps, and load status.
Is there an Implementation & Onboarding fee?
Yes — a one-time Implementation & Onboarding fee that covers an onsite visit from a Loadly engineer. The amount depends on your operation — the number of sites, docks, and iPads, and how much configuration your trailers, tractors, and rules require — so we scope it with you during onboarding. We come to your dock, calibrate the app to your specific trailers and tractors, set up your LPN rules, configure multi-stop logic if you need it, set up the dock charging station, load and authenticate your team's iPads, and walk your designated trainer through the app — they'll then roll it out to the rest of your operators. This is what makes Loadly accurate from day one — we don't ship you a generic config and hope it works. It's billed once, after your team has signed off on the configuration.
What do I need before implementing Loadly?
Really just one thing: accurate weights in your WMS. Loadly's load plans and axle calculations are only as reliable as the weights you feed in — audit your WMS so every SKU and pallet has a verified weight on file before going live. The iPads and a dock charging station come with your plan — a complete dock execution service, delivered configured and locked to Loadly — so there's no hardware for you to source (unless you'd rather bring your own iPads).
Where do the ROI calculator numbers come from?
We keep a clear line between public industry data and our own estimates, so you can audit every figure.
Sourced from public industry data

Loadly estimates
  • Rework reduction (more than 90%*) — Loadly customer outcomes, when the app is used as designed.
  • Rework duration (2 hrs) — trucks often wait for an operator before re-handling begins.
  • Truck detention rate ($55/hr) — driver pay + fixed truck ownership while parked, excluding per-mile driving costs.
  • Wasted miles (~20 mi/rework) — the driver backtracks to the dock and re-runs the scale for each rework.
  • Multi-touch factor (1.2×) — a problem load is sometimes handled more than once.
  • Opportunity cost ($44/rework) — blocked-dock throughput, kept to one forklift-shift equivalent.
  • Incidence rates & photo claim-win uplift (+45 pts) — how often each cost is triggered, and how much dock photo proof improves disputed-claim outcomes.
Some retailer handbooks (Amazon Vendor Central, Target Partners Online) are login-gated, so we link the public program pages. Every constant is documented in our open source code — happy to share the line-by-line spreadsheet on request.
How is the per-rework cost calculated?
Every rework Loadly prevents saves a guaranteed operational cost. For a typical 2-hour rework we count four direct line items, then apply a multi-touch factor:
  • Forklift operator labor — $44 (2 hrs × $22/hr)
  • Truck detention — $110 (2 hrs × $55/hr — the driver's pay and the truck's fixed ownership costs while it sits waiting; the per-mile driving costs are excluded here)
  • Opportunity cost — $44 (blocked-dock throughput, kept to one forklift-shift equivalent)
  • Fuel & wasted miles — $18 (~20 mi × $0.90/mi — the driver has to come back and re-run the scale ~1.6×; priced at ATRI's variable per-mile rate so the driver's time isn't double-counted)
That's a $216 base, multiplied by a 1.2× multi-touch factor (a problem load is sometimes handled more than once) = ~$259 per rework.
That figure is only the direct operational cost. On top of it, the calculator adds probability-weighted risk costs per rework — overweight fines (~1 in 6 × $350), OTIF chargebacks (10% × $600), and cargo-damage claims (4% × $250) — each shown as its own line so you can audit them separately.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — every paid plan includes a 30-day free trial. A card on file is required to start, but you won't be charged until the trial ends, and you can cancel anytime before then.
How does the per-user pricing work?
You pay one all-inclusive rate per user — and a user is one loader using a Loadly-equipped iPad. Every feature is included, no tiers to choose. One user per loader / active dock, with a 5-user minimum, and the per-user rate drops as you add more (see the volume bands on the pricing page). Web dashboard access — for supervisors and ops managers to review loads, photos, and reports — is included at no extra charge, with no seat limit. Above 50 users we quote a custom volume rate.
Already have your own iPads? Bring your own devices and save $10/user per month. The rate then covers the software, driver app, dashboard, device management, and support — you supply and replace the hardware.
Do you offer multi-site discounts?
Yes. On top of the per-user volume rate, companies running multiple warehouses / distribution centers earn an additional multi-site discount that stacks with your volume band and annual billing:
  • 2–4 sites — an extra 5% off per user
  • 5–9 sites — an extra 10% off per user
  • 10+ sites — an extra 15% off per user
You can see exactly how it scales on the pricing page calculator. Running a larger footprint? We'll put together a custom volume quote — reach out at sales@loadly.us or through our contact form.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes — upgrade or downgrade anytime from your account. Changes pro-rate automatically.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
Your saved loads, photos, and reports stay accessible in read-only mode for 90 days after cancellation. You can also export everything as CSV + image archive.
