Software for courier business owners
An envelope collected from a reception desk is a different assignment from a bulky parcel requiring a named receiver. Keep the client, agreed collection and commercial scope together, while route planning, shipment tracking and specialist delivery controls stay with the tools your operation needs.
Unleash your potential.
The everyday details
Opening hours, reception instructions and the person handing over the consignment can decide whether a collection proceeds smoothly. Confirm those arrangements before the driver leaves rather than assuming a street address contains all the necessary context.
An office may request a delivery to its customer while another department receives the invoice. Distinguish the paying client from the delivery contact so the business paperwork does not confuse the handoff arrangement.
A delayed collection or an additional destination can create work outside the agreed scope. Discuss the change through your normal process instead of leaving the driver and invoice preparer with different understandings of what was approved.
Fuel, maintenance, parking and other operating expenses accumulate between invoices. Recording the spending gives the owner a more useful basis for review than a count of completed drops on its own.

Compare plansA few useful answers
Microtra does not provide route optimization or GPS tracking. It keeps general appointments, jobs and business records. Use suitable separate software for dispatch, navigation and delivery tracking when your operation requires those functions.
The app does not provide a specialist consignment scanning or proof-of-delivery workflow. General notes and document tools should not be presented as a replacement for the delivery evidence your service promises.
It does not supply clinical handling, chain-of-custody or medical courier compliance tools. Use the specialist systems, qualified advice and operating procedures appropriate to that work; general invoices do not establish suitability.
You can write clear invoice items describing the work supplied and use the client's billing preferences. Check each item against the agreement yourself, including any waiting or additional work approved through your normal communication channel.
