We find missed detention and lumper fees in your messy paperwork.

No software integration. No TMS logins. Strict Confidentiality.

Send us one old billing packet — rate con, BOL, lumper receipt, whatever you've got. We check the paperwork, find charges you missed, and send back a plain-English summary your team can bill from. That's it.

Redactions are fine. We don't need logins, passwords, or access to anything. Just one old packet you've already billed — or forgot to.

What we actually do

Your paperwork in, recovered money out.

Plain English. Backed by your own paperwork. Your team sends the invoice.

How it works

No app. No dashboard. Just the money you're leaving on the table.

You send paperwork. We check it against your rate con and find charges you missed. You get a plain-English summary. Your team decides what to bill.

Charge recovery

Supported detention, lumper, and accessorial checks

DockLedger compares contract terms against the actual packet so missed billable items show up before they become write-offs.

Packet completeness

Proof gaps before the broker asks

Missing signatures, weak dwell proof, or invoice mismatches get called out while the file is still recoverable.

Human-controlled output

Audit trail included, final send remains yours

Every recommendation points back to the supplied documents. Your team still approves wording, numbering, submission, and any dispute handling.

Step by step

Takes five minutes. Costs you nothing.

01

Dig up one old billing packet

Rate con, BOL, lumper receipt, invoice draft — whatever you have. Redact anything you want. Email or text it over.

02

We check it line by line

Rate terms, detention windows, lumper receipts, accessorial provisions — we compare what the contract says to what you actually billed.

03

You get back a recovery summary

Plain English. Every missed charge backed by a specific page in your paperwork. No jargon, no upsell.

04

Your team decides what to bill

We never send invoices on your behalf. You review the summary, approve what makes sense, and bill it yourself.

Credibility boundary

Safe enough for a first conversation.

Questions about how packets are handled? Read the plain-language confidentiality note before sending anything.

Real example

$440 was sitting in the paperwork. The carrier never billed it.

A missing lumper reimbursement and supported detention — both documented in the packet, both absent from the invoice. We caught them.

Sample recovery

$440 found in one packet

The rate con allowed detention after 2 hours. The BOL showed 4+ hours on site. The lumper receipt was in the stack but never invoiced.

$2,590 Corrected total

Why this wedge exists

The economics are messy enough to matter and narrow enough to audit.

OOIDA 2024 survey

Most fleets are still small operations.

OOIDA reported in its 2024 owner-operator survey that 90% of fleets in the study operated ten trucks or fewer, which is exactly where lean back-office billing pressure is most visible.

Open source
FMCSA detention research

Detention is common enough to cost real money.

FMCSA says detention occurs on about one in ten stops and cites an OIG estimate of more than $1 billion in lost annual driver earnings.

Open source
Operational reality

Billing work happens after the load, under time pressure.

That makes completed-load review a better fit than another live dispatch tool: the documents already exist and the output can be audited before submission.

Who picks up the phone

One person. Not a call center.

Every email, every call, every packet review goes through me directly. No sales team. No account managers. If you have a question, you talk to me.

What we will never ask for

  • ELD access or API keys
  • Any software installation whatsoever
Straight answers

Questions we get from every dispatcher.

Do I have to install anything?

No. Nothing. No software, no app, no browser extension. You email or text us a packet. We email you back.

Can I black out customer names and rates?

Yes. Redact whatever you want on the first review. We just need enough to check the math.

What if you don't find anything?

Then we tell you that. The first review is free. If your paperwork is clean, that's a good thing.

Is this some kind of factoring pitch?

No. We don't touch your money, your invoices, or your broker relationships. We review paperwork and hand you a summary. You do the billing.

Ready when you are

Send us one old packet. We'll tell you what you missed.
