Many times one needs to move whole lot of stuff from one place to another. It becomes very tedious as one need to prepare everything and then call the truck driver agency who will book the truck for taking things from one place to another.
This also involves huge cost. There are various vendors in between which increase the cost. To reduce the cost it has linked drivers of truck to the vendors directly. Similarly on these lines, one could make the app with the help of uber for trucks.
The idea behind uber for trucks
There are times when one needs to carry goods from one place to another.
For this they need to contact the truck agency who provides the truck on rent with driver.
In this one cannot choose the truck as per own requirement. So if one need to transport smaller trucks then also one need to book the big truck and pay the price for same.
With Uber for trucks, one can book the truck size as per the need and goods required to be delivered. This will reduce the cost of the truck as the bigger the truck, cost will be higher.
Features which could help Uber for trucks
Various features are there in uber for trucks which could benefit both the users as well as drivers such as –
1. Commission – A commission is being charged by different vendors which come in the process of booking the truck which in turn cost more to the user and gives less to the truck driver.
With Uber for trucks, the process between is cut and the user could contact driver directly for sending the goods from one place to another.
2. Right truck – Many times when the user book the truck and if the size of truck is big then might user will think to reduce the cost be asking for smaller truck and vice versa.
It will waste the time and money of both user as well as driver. With Uber for trucks, the user could easily take the truck of one’s own choice. So that after that one will not find any kind of issues.
3. Fare – While booking the truck with other agency, it might happen that one will be charged high even after confirmation. But with Uber for trucks, there would be no change in the fare and one will get the same price only.
4. Tracking of truck – If one had booked the truck then one can see that how much time it will take with Uber for trucks to reach the destination.
Even if one is not moving along with truck and waiting at drop location then one could track through Uber for trucks that where the truck has reached and on which route it is.
5. Payment – With the older method one need to pay the payment through cash only and if one needs to pay it through any card then one need to visit the agency.
With Uber for trucks as soon as the drop is done then the payment will be deducted from the chosen method of doing the payment and one does not need to go anywhere to do the payment.
With Uber for trucks, a big problem which is there in the logistics industry has been solved by giving benefits to both the truck driver and users.

fustrated by your high pricing………..$7-8 to go 2 miles?!!! I would have walked or gotten a bus a few blocks away. Also I typed in my location AND DESTINATION but the latter didn’t show up for the driver bc I asked him why I hadn’t received an fare estimate………
THERE’S NO WAY TO COMMENT ABOUT THE FARE IN YOUR RATING SYSTEM AFTER THE TRIP….COULD BE GREAT DRIVER, CLEAN CAR, BUT OUTRAGEOUS PRICE. I’VE JUST STARTED USING UBER……I WILL BE MUCH MUCH MORE CAREFUL IN DISCERNING TO USE IT OR PUBLIC TRANSIT. IT WAS JUST AS EXPENSIVE AS A TAXI IN THIS AREA. DISAPPOINTING EXPERIENCE W YOUR BUSINESS NOT THE DRIVER.
