Pallet control software

Stop pallets walking out the door.

Track pallet balances by customer, record what goes out and comes back on every drop, and flag what to collect on the run, so CHEP and Loscam pallets stop leaking.

What it is

The leak every operator lives with.

Pallets are the leak every operator lives with. A few dozen CHEP or Loscam pallets unaccounted for is real money.

Freighthouse tracks the balance of every pallet type by customer, records what goes out and comes back on each delivery, and flags what to collect, so the balances stop walking out the door. Instead of guessing how many pallets a customer is holding, you see the running number and chase it before it becomes a loss.

It works with any pallet pool. CHEP is the global brand, Loscam is strong across the Asia Pacific, and plenty of operators move plain pallets too. Whatever you run, the job is the same: keep the balance honest by customer.

What you get

Every pallet, accounted for.

Balances by customer

See how many pallets each customer is holding, as a running balance that updates every time you deliver or collect.

CHEP, Loscam and plain

Track each pallet type separately, so CHEP, Loscam and plain balances are kept apart and never blur together.

Out and back on each drop

Record pallets left and pallets picked up at every stop, so the balance reflects exactly what changed hands.

Flag collections on the run

Anything owing is flagged back to the driver, so the pallets due for collection come home on the next visit.

Owing alerts

When a customer's balance climbs past what it should be, you get an alert, so a slow leak never becomes a big write-off.

Reconcile against dockets

Match your recorded balances against pallet dockets and statements, so disputes are settled with a clear record.

How it works

From the drop to the balance.

01

Record pallets on each drop

At each stop the driver logs pallets out and back by type, in seconds, on the phone.

02

Balances update by customer

Every entry updates that customer's running balance for each pallet type automatically.

03

Owing flagged to collect

Anything a customer owes is flagged, so it lands on the next run for collection.

04

Reconcile and chase

Match balances against dockets, settle disputes, and chase what is owing before it is lost.

Why operators switch

Pallet control without an enterprise system.

Proper pallet control has always meant a big enterprise system that a small carrier or wholesaler could never justify. Freighthouse ends that. It is month to month, cancel anytime, and most operators are live within a day.

You turn on only what you run: pallet control on its own, or add it to warehouse picking and delivery so the same drops feed your balances. Your data stays yours, on your own private system that no one else, including us, ever sees.

FAQ

Pallet control, answered.

What is pallet control software?

Pallet control software tracks the balance of every pallet type you move, by customer, and records what goes out and what comes back on each delivery. Instead of guessing how many CHEP or Loscam pallets a customer is holding, you see the running balance, get owing alerts, and flag what to collect on the run, so pallets stop leaking.

Does it work with CHEP and Loscam?

Yes. Freighthouse tracks CHEP, Loscam and plain pallets as separate types, so the balance for each pooling brand is kept apart by customer. It is universal to any pallet pool, whether you run one brand or several across the same runs.

How does it track pallet balances?

On each drop the driver records the pallets left and the pallets picked up, by type. The balance for that customer updates automatically, so at any moment you can see how many of each pallet type a customer is holding and reconcile it against your dockets.

Can drivers record pallets on the run?

Yes. Drivers record pallets out and back at each stop on the phone, in seconds. Anything owing is flagged straight back so it can be collected on the next visit, and the office sees the updated balance without re-keying paper dockets.

Do I need the whole platform?

No. You can turn on pallet control on its own, or add it to warehouse picking and delivery. It is month to month, cancel anytime, and most operators are live within a day. You only turn on the parts you need.
