This document provides an overview of the online transportation management system (TMS) offered by Diversified Transportation Services. The TMS allows users to get rate quotes from multiple carriers with just a few clicks, schedule pickups, create shipping documents, and track shipments. It provides options to enter shipment details using short or complete forms. Users can select the best carrier, view rates and services, and update address and commodity information. The system saves entered data to streamline future shipments. Booked shipments are dispatched by client services and can be tracked at various stages. Users have preferences options and can receive documents and invoices electronically. Customer support is available through multiple offices and contacts.

Short Form or Complete Form – What’s the difference?
Short Form
If time is a factor and you
need a quick freight
estimate, the short form is
for you! Simply type in the
origin and destination zip
codes, class and weight,
as well as any
supplementals such as
residential, liftgate, call
before delivery, and you
will have a rate in seconds.
If you have all of your
shipment information in
hand and want it saved in
the system for quick
access at a later time, the
complete form is the best
option for you. With this
option you can save all of
the information for a
completed bill of lading,
obtain your rate, and you
are ready to go when
your shipment is
available.
