scheduled, informing them when the UPS Freight driver is en-route to the pickup location and notifying them when the pickup is made.
UPS Freight said customers arranging their LTL freight pickup online can opt to receive “near-real time” notifications for up to five different email addresses, keeping all parties associated with the shipment informed.
The service,”Pickup Notifications for LTL,” is free and available immediately to customers who log onto ups.com to schedule their LTL pickups.
Starting in January 2012, this new capability will be available for customers scheduling LTL freight pickups in other electronic systems, such as UPS WorldShip and My LTL Freight. The feature is available for online pickups that are scheduled in the 48 contiguous states where UPS Freight provides direct service.
