How it works
Scan a bill of lading, build a PDF, email the broker
Built for owner operators who need to send trucking paperwork after delivery without driving to a kiosk or paying per page.
Clean the pages
Crop, rotate, and apply a document filter so broker AP can read signatures, load numbers, and handwritten notes.
Create a PDF and email the broker
Combine pages into one load packet PDF and send it from your Gmail to the freight broker or factoring company.
Trucking documents
BOL, POD, and rate confirmation in one packet
Broker AP and factoring companies want the full set: rate con, signed bill of lading, proof of delivery, and receipts. Scan each page once and send one PDF.
Bill of lading (BOL) scanner
Capture a signed bill of lading at pickup or delivery. Keep load numbers, piece counts, and signatures readable for broker AP.
Proof of delivery (POD) scanner
Scan the POD before you leave the dock. A clear proof of delivery scan is what most brokers need to start the payment clock.
Rate confirmation scanner
Save the rate con with the rest of the load. Send the rate confirmation, BOL, and POD together as one packet.
Features
A phone scanner that replaces the truck stop kiosk
Email brokers from your Gmail
Load paperwork leaves from your address. Freight brokers and factoring companies recognize you, not a random scan service.
One load packet PDF
BOL, rate confirmation, POD, lumper receipts, and scale tickets in a single PDF. That is what broker AP and factoring desks ask for.
Works at the dock and in the cab
Scan in dead zones. Pages save on your phone. Send when you have signal. No waiting on a truck stop kiosk line.
Black and white document mode
Turn a phone photo into a clean trucking document. Easier to read than a color snapshot, and smaller to email.
Broker contacts
Save AP emails once. Pick the broker when you send. No retyping invoice@ addresses at a fuel island.
Google sign in
One tap with Google. No extra password to remember on the road.

FAQ
Trucking document scanner questions
Is TruckPaperwork really free?
Yes. TruckPaperwork is free for truckers and owner operators. Scan unlimited bills of lading, rate confirmations, and PODs. Create unlimited load packet PDFs. No subscription and no per-page truck stop scanner fees.
How do I scan a bill of lading (BOL) with my phone?
Open TruckPaperwork, point your camera at the BOL, and capture the page. The scanner straightens the bill of lading, improves contrast, and saves a clean document photo you can add to a load packet.
Can I scan proof of delivery and rate confirmations too?
Yes. Use it as a POD scanner, rate confirmation scanner, and general trucking document scanner. Combine the rate con, BOL, POD, lumper receipts, and scale tickets into one PDF for the broker.
How do I email load paperwork to a freight broker?
Connect Gmail, pick the broker, and send the PDF from your own address. Broker AP teams see your email, not a third-party scanning service. That is the same workflow most factoring companies want: one PDF per load.
Do I still need a truck stop scanner or Transflo kiosk?
Usually no. A phone document scanner is faster than waiting in line at a truck stop kiosk. Scan in the cab, at the dock, or in a parking lot, then email the packet when you have signal.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Scan BOLs and PODs in dead zones. Documents save on your phone. Send the load packet to the broker or factoring company when you have cell service.
Stop waiting on truck stop scanners
