Built for bulk
What a van-freight TMS has nowhere to put
Generic TMS software was built for freight priced per load and weighed once. Bulk is priced per bushel, ton or hundredweight, billed on whichever scale the contract says, and paid in more ways than most systems have fields for.
The platform
Everything a bulk operation runs on
One login, one load record, every module. Nothing to re-key between dispatch, billing and the shop.
Plan & move
Weigh & bill
Fleet & compliance
Know your numbers
Built for every side of the load
Carriers, brokers and shippers on one system
Whether you run trucks, move other people's freight, or ship grain out of an elevator, BulkTMS works the way bulk freight actually moves.
From the people running it
Paperwork days, given back
The BulkLoads ecosystem
Not just a TMS. A network behind it.
BulkTMS is built by BulkLoads, the bulk freight marketplace founded in 2011 in Springfield, Missouri. Your TMS sits next to the load board, factoring, insurance and market data your operation already uses.
Common questions
Before you book a call
What operators ask us first. If yours isn't here, call. Sales and support are in Springfield, Missouri.
What kinds of freight does BulkTMS handle?
Bulk freight of every kind: grain, aggregates, feed ingredients, liquid, industrial products and cattle. Each commodity has a profile that sets its rate type (per ton, per bushel at 56 or 60 lb, per CWT, per gallon), billing weight, equipment, shrink and document rules.
Is it for carriers, brokers or shippers?
All three, and operations that are more than one. Carriers dispatch their own trucks and outside carriers from one board; brokers see customer and carrier rates on every load; shippers and elevators manage contracts, tickets and grades. Loads tendered between companies on BulkTMS arrive in the receiving company's Inbound Work queue.
Which ELDs and systems does it connect to?
ELDs from Samsara, Motive, Omnitracs, Konexial and John Deere Operations Center; QuickBooks Online for invoices, payments and settlements; AgTrax and grain accounting systems for ticket postback; Highway for carrier vetting; and PC*MILER for routing and miles.
How does it handle scale tickets?
The driver captures the weight and ticket number at the stop, and the scale ticket is attached to the load. Stops can require a ticket before they close, and weights and grades post back to your grain system using your grade codes.
How do drivers and carriers get their loads?
Load confirmations go out by SMS and email from the load, and a driver conversation opens automatically on assignment. Customers and carriers can be sent a portal link to follow the load.
How do we get our data in?
Customers, carriers, facilities, drivers, equipment, commodity profiles and freight matrices import from spreadsheets. A setup checklist works out from your actual data what's still missing before you build your first load, send your first invoice or pay your first driver.
How is it priced?
Pricing depends on your operation and is covered on the call. There's no commitment to ask.
