ECU Worldwide upgrades trucking instruction feature on ECU 360 to boost integrated transportation

ATLANTA, May 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ECU Worldwide, Allcargo Logistics' wholly-owned global subsidiary and leader in LCL consolidation, has upgraded its easy trucking instruction facility on its proprietary digital tool ECU 360 to offer an integrated cargo transportation facility worldwide. With the upgraded easy trucking instruction facility, ECU Worldwide customers will no longer have to coordinate for the first or last mile pick ups and deliveries separately. Businesses can now move their cargo door-to-door, as ECU Worldwide streamlines the entire shipping process to offer a seamless experience for its customers.

Using the easy trucking instruction facility on ECU 360 customers, shippers and consignees are able to submit trucking instructions. The easy trucking instruction facility is available across ECU Worldwide's network of 180 countries. It also offers door-to-door deliveries in over 50 global markets.

The upgraded facility also comes with a useful feature through which customers can upgrade their shipments from a port move to a door move online. The feature also provides added convenience and flexibility, allowing customers to tailor their shipping experience to their specific needs. It also allows customers to split their shipment and arrange for multiple import deliveries.

Trucking instruction and quotes are now seamlessly integrated into global ERP platform Topaz, ensuring accuracy and eliminating manual data entry. Customers can track shipments using the track-and-trace feature which offers visibility on estimated pickup and delivery dates for exports and imports.

A public link is embedded within the arrival notices sent to import operators, brokers, forwarders and direct consignees. Users can click on the embedded link to submit delivery instructions effortlessly.
