Schedule dock appointments with a shareable link.
Set up in 3 minutes and share the link. Carriers book themselves — no account, no app, no login.
Free for one location · No credit card · Setup in 3 minutes
What it replaces
Replace the chaos with one link.
If your dock runs on phone calls, group texts, a spreadsheet, and a whiteboard, SimpleDock replaces all of it with a single booking page.
Two sides of one link
They book. You see it instantly.
Carriers pick a time from your link — no account, under a minute. Every appointment lands on your schedule automatically, with zero data entry on your end.
simpledock.ai/book/acme-warehouseHow it works
Three steps to get started.
Set up your doors
Add your location, configure dock doors, set hours, and define how long each appointment type takes.
Share your link
One link per location. Send it to your carriers, paste it in your dispatch system, put it in your email signature.
They book themselves
Carriers pick a time, drivers get an SMS, you get a clean schedule. Anyone can reschedule on their own — no calls.
Benefits
Tuned for how docks actually run.
Slot limits, buffer times, SMS reminders, and self-serve reschedules — built around trucks, not meeting rooms.
Don't overbook your docks.
Set how many trucks you can take per hour, add buffer time between appointments for paperwork or door turnover, and require advance notice so no one shows up unannounced.
One booking link per facility.
Every location gets its own short link to share with carriers. Run multiple plants or DCs? Each one stays separate — no mixed-up appointments across sites.
Carriers reschedule themselves.
When a load slips, carriers click the link in their confirmation, pick a new time, and the schedule updates. You get notified. No phone tag, no missed slots.
Cut driver no-shows with SMS.
Drivers get a text the day before and an hour out, with the door number, address, and a link to reschedule. No app to install — just a phone number on file.
Your dock appointment at Acme Warehouse is in 1 hour. Door 4, 1247 Industrial Pkwy. Reply R to reschedule.
Reminder: Acme Warehouse tomorrow, 10:00 AM. Door 4.
TV Mode
Put the whole board on the wall.
Mount a TV at the dock or in the lobby and everyone sees today’s schedule the second it changes. Inbound, outbound, and live status — in type you can read from across the yard.
