Product / Job Planning
Job Planning, all on one board.
HaulierMagic is the transport management system that turns your incoming orders into a clear plan your drivers can act on. Drag legs onto vehicles, sequence the stops, and send the job straight to the driver's app.
Trusted by UK haulage operators
The problem
Whiteboards and spreadsheets can't keep up.
When the plan lives on a wall or in a spreadsheet, only one person can see it, every change means a phone call, and a missed leg is a missed invoice. HaulierMagic puts the whole day on one board your whole team can work from.
Planning in HaulierMagic
- One board, visible to the whole office
- Changes sync instantly to drivers
- Every unplanned leg in one queue
- Live status from plan to POD
What it does
Powerful planning that's simple to use.
Drag-and-drop planning, flexible views, resource skills and full sight of your subcontractors, all on one board with no spreadsheets required, so your planners spend less time chasing and more time moving freight.
Drag-and-drop planning
The fastest way to assign, reassign and rebalance jobs. Drop a job onto a driver. Move it. Split it. Reroute it. The plan updates everywhere, across the driver app, customer portal and accounts, in real time.
Multi-view planning screen
Maps, lists, cards, Gantt-style timelines. Set the screen up the way each planner wants to work. New starters get a familiar view in minutes, while senior planners keep the dense view they’re used to.
Skills across drivers, vehicles, trailers
ADR for chemicals, HIAB for crane work, refrigerated trailers for cold chain. Skills sit on every resource, so the planner sees the right combinations at a glance, not after the wrong driver has already been dispatched.
Subcontractor handling
Plan and track work going out to subcontractors alongside your own fleet, with the same screen, the same visibility and the same live updates. No more WhatsApp blackouts once a job leaves the yard. Subcontractors don't need their own HaulierMagic licence.
How it works
From job in to driver out, in four steps.
-
Jobs arrive
Customer portal, email, EDI, or manual entry, all routed into one queue.
-
App suggests tours
Optimised by skill, location, capacity and driver hours.
-
Planner reviews
Drag, drop, accept, override. The planner stays in control.
-
Drivers dispatched
Straight to their phones, with HGV-safe routes from NavigateMagic.
The outcome
Less chasing. Fewer mistakes. A clearer day.
Plan faster
One board your team works from together means fewer calls to drivers and quicker decisions when the day shifts.
Cut mistakes
Drivers get every detail of the job in the app, so loads, addresses and references stop getting lost in translation.
See the whole day
The plan, the legs still to cover and live ETAs sit in one place, so you always know where work stands.
Since using a TMS system, planning has become much simpler, saving time and creating full visibility whilst allowing the drivers to go paperless using the mobile app.
Gary Dale Stears Haulage Limited Questions
What every transport manager asks before booking a demo.
How long does it take to set up?
Most hauliers are planning live within days, not months. We help you migrate your existing data and run alongside your current system during the first week.
Will my planners need training?
Drag-and-drop is intuitive for anyone who's used a screen, so most planners are confident within hours. We provide live onboarding and a knowledge base.
Can I still plan manually if I want to?
Yes. The suggested plan is just that, a suggestion, not a mandate. Plan entirely by hand, accept the suggested tours, or anything in between.
How does it work with subcontractors?
Subcontractors are tracked alongside your own fleet, with the same visibility on the same screen. They don't need their own HaulierMagic licence.
Does it integrate with my tracker, accounts, and pallet networks?
Yes. TomTom and Microlise telematics, Xero and Sage accounts, and the major UK pallet networks are all supported.
