Creating a shipment in the TruckYou Shipper App takes a few minutes. You enter the pickup and delivery addresses, describe your goods, specify the weight, and pay — all from your phone. Once confirmed, a driver is assigned and you can track the shipment in real time.

Steps to create a shipment

1

Open the app and log in

Launch the TruckYou Shipper App on your device. Enter your mobile number and tap Send OTP. Enter the one-time password you receive via SMS to sign in.
2

Tap 'Create Shipment'

On the home screen, tap the Create Shipment button to start a new booking.
3

Enter the pickup address

Search for the pickup location using the Google Maps integration, or tap Use my location to auto-detect your current position. Confirm the address before proceeding.
4

Enter the delivery address

Search for the destination address using Google Maps. Confirm the address before proceeding.
5

Describe your shipment and enter the weight

Provide a brief description of the goods (for example, “electronic components” or “packaged garments”) and enter the total weight of your shipment in kilograms.
6

Review the pricing

The app calculates the fare based on weight, distance, and service type. Review the price breakdown before confirming.
7

Confirm and pay

Tap Confirm Shipment to proceed to payment. Complete the payment via Razorpay. Once payment is successful, your shipment is booked and a driver will be assigned.

Prohibited items

Accuracy matters

Providing incorrect shipment details — including addresses, descriptions, or weight — may result in delivery delays or additional charges. Double-check all fields before confirming your shipment.
