The website of a haulage company with an overview of the fleet, a description of the transport on offer and a recruitment section for drivers. A transport enquiry and a job application side by side on one website.
Do you want a website for a transport company?
We will build it on Joomla. A transport website solves two things at once — finding work and finding drivers. Both are an enquiry form, just for a completely different person.
What the website of a transport company needs
A haulier today looks for drivers as hard as for work. A website that thinks only about customers gives away half of its usefulness.
- A fleet list with the payload and trailer type of every vehicle
- The area you drive to, written with search engines in mind as well
- A transport enquiry that asks about dimensions and dates
- A recruitment section with a simple application form for drivers
- Certification and liability insurance in plain sight
- A contact for the dispatch office reachable from every page
What to watch out for in this line of business
Driver recruitment
A job application has to be shorter than a transport enquiry. Every extra field means fewer applicants.
Type of vehicle
The customer searches by what they have to load. Payload and trailer type belong in the copy, not only in a photograph.
Dispatch office
Transport is agreed by telephone. The dispatch number should be impossible to miss on the website.
Trust
Liability insurance and licences decide the larger jobs. They belong on the website, not only in the quotation.
