standardized tracking for shipping containers currently tracking is limited either by A) type of transportation (ships, rail, trucks) or B) by the Freight Forwarding company. If you use multiple freight forwarders, you're stuck entering data from PDFs into spreadsheets to create your own custom usable dashboard. If you use one freight forwarder, you have access to the main journey points, either as a spreadsheet, or if they're more sophisticated, through a web app. But I've only found one (silicon valley backed) Freight Forwarder [0] that gives the last-mile data -- e.g. last free pickup dates, pickup numbers, last free dropoff dates, return locations etc. -- through their web app. This is critical for managing warehouse operations, especially for companies that handle their own last-mile (like we do), and it's been an absolute pain as we've scaled. 0: https://www.flexport.com https://www.flexport.com
