Detroit, Michigan
Detroit logistics software FAQ
Straight answers for metro Detroit carriers, couriers and garages comparing dispatch, routing, driver pay and compliance platforms.
Buying locally
Is there a plan built for Detroit-area fleets?
Yes. The Detroit Local plan is $79 a month or $790 a year and adds metro Detroit route and coverage views, local garage and shop pickup workflows, Michigan compliance tracking and five included seats.
Can a single-truck Detroit operator use it?
Yes. Plans scale by seats and features, so an owner-operator can start on the entry plan and add dispatchers, drivers and garages as the operation grows.
How quickly can a Detroit fleet get running?
You create an account, pick a plan and start adding drivers, clients and jobs the same day. Nothing needs to be installed on a truck to begin dispatching.
Detroit operations
Does it understand Detroit corridors?
Routes are matched against the corridors local carriers actually run — I-75, I-94, I-96, I-696, I-275, the Lodge, Southfield Freeway, Woodward, Gratiot, Michigan Avenue — and freight sites like Eastern Market, the Ford Rouge complex, DTW and the Port of Detroit, so each job shows what it touches.
How are border runs handled?
Ambassador Bridge, Gordie Howe and tunnel approaches are flagged on the route so dispatch can allow for queue time. Tunnel restrictions such as hazmat and height limits are shown as reference guidance to confirm before the move.
What about Michigan seasonal weight restrictions?
Frost-law restrictions, oversize and overweight permits, daylight-only permitted movement and inspection readiness are listed in the Detroit operating rules section — reference guidance to confirm with MDOT and the city before each permitted run.
Can local garages and shops be involved?
Yes. Garages get their own login to request pickups, log repair and parts costs, and send driver payouts to finance for release.

Where do I find permit and pickup-window answers?
