Transport Pro is a web-based transportation management system (TMS) built only for full truckload freight. It serves truckload carriers that run their own fleets and freight brokers that source capacity from other carriers. The company says it has worked in truckload software since 2011 and has more than 100 clients, from small fleets to growing brokerages.
Rather than covering every freight mode, the product stays narrow. Its pitch is a single system for loads, dispatch, accounting, billing, imaging and factoring, so teams avoid juggling separate tools. Founder Kenneth Kloeppel has led product development for about 15 years, according to the About page.
How does Transport Pro work?
Work starts with load entry, where staff record bill-to details, line items, express loads, stop-offs and dispatches. A freight operations dashboard shows available loads, active drivers, and planned and dispatched loads. Carriers use driver apps and ELD integrations for tracking, while brokers post loads and monitor carriers.
After delivery, billing queues generate invoices that can go to the customer or a factoring company. Settlements pay drivers and carriers, and accounting modules handle AP, AR, cash receipts and reconciliation. A two-way QuickBooks Online sync is available for teams that keep their books there.
Key features of Transport Pro
On the carrier side, Transport Pro offers load planning, dispatching, driver apps, ELD integrations and empty-movement tracking for deadhead miles. Brokers get load posting, Book Now for online booking, carrier sourcing by lane history, active capacity matching, and eSignature rate confirmations that come back signed automatically.
Broker onboarding uses DAT CarrierWatch or SaferWatch for compliance data, with qualification standards and a Carrier Qualification Issues report. Billing includes master billing, rebilling and factoring support, and shippers can use a customer portal to see load status and proof-of-delivery documents.
