The Navisphere Carrier app gives you the power to find the freight you want, make offers and book instantly. To get started, tap find loads, all available loads within 100 miles show up and list format. To get more info, tap anywhere on that load to view additional details. If you like a load, hit book then simply assign a driver, into your tractor and trailer number and tap book load to complete.

Interested in a load and want to make an offer? Select make offer to propose a new rate. You'll receive a response within seconds. If you want to see the status of loads have made an offer on or a history of your bids, tap the “My Offers” tab to review. You can watch a how-to video of this here.

You can always see the loads you booked by tapping the “My Loads” screen in the Navisphere Carrier app and filter by three statuses: booked, assigned, and in transit. If you don't see these options, just tap the eye icon. If you'd rather see the loads on the map, just hit the map icon. Select any combination to see corresponding loads on the map. For example: with booked selected zoom in or select the location icons to see more details about your loads in that area. The list icon will take you back to the list view anytime.

Connect your ELD/GPS by visiting our carrier tracking set up page. From there, find the way you’d like to connect and follow the instructions included. We’re strongly committed to helping carriers keep clear control of their own data. We only track information specific to each load so that shippers can have a clear understanding of where their goods are. Once a load is marked as delivered, tracking stops immediately. Here’s a quick and easy guide to data transparency.

There are several reasons why a load payment has not been released. The most common reasons include:

• Missing or illegible paperwork
• Load number is not written on each document received
• Correct load number not written on each document received
• Bill of lading (BOL) is not signed
• Damage/shortage is noted on the BOL; in this case, your load representative will have to approve payment after reviewing the situation
• The originals were mailed in for QuickPay release, but not addressed to the attention of QuickPay
• Missing carrier invoice; a load confirmation is not an acceptable invoice; the invoice should contain the load number, balance due, and your carrier ID number.

C.H. Robinson contract carriers are expected to provide digital track and trace updates at the following time frames throughout the life of a load:

• Pre-pickup and Pre-delivery: 4 hours and 2 hours before driver's arrival. If the driver will arrive late, we need an update 4 hours and 2 hours before the appointment close time.
• In-transit notifications: Every 4 hours in transit
• Arrival notifications: 30 minutes after arrival; 30 minutes after departure
