o one likes detention, but it’s an unavoidable aspect of the business for carriers whenever a driver needs to leave a location with the same


trailer that was used to make the delivery. The question is whether you let it get out of hand and cut into profits from multiple angles, or you rein it in and manage it effectively to give yourself a competitive edge.


Implementing McLeod’s Detention module has given us the tools to transform the way we manage detention. We have visibility into detention patterns, we can document and bill for detention when it occurs, we can schedule our fleet and manage our drivers more precisely, and we’ve reduced the burden on our drivers. We have fewer service failures, better asset utilization, and happier drivers.


Those are powerful benefits that make us more competitive and more profitable, and that’s what we’ve come to expect from McLeod Software.
