What Problem Does This Solve?
Here’s what we kept hearing: Contractors need materials on Tuesday, but the delivery shows up Thursday. Or the Driver arrives when nobody’s on site. Or the Material Provider has three trucks and seven delivery requests with zero visibility into what’s urgent.
Everyone’s coordinating through phone calls, text threads, and hope.
We fixed this.
Bottom Line: Construction delivery coordination has been broken for decades. Phone tag doesn’t scale when you’re managing multiple trucks and job sites.
How Does Scheduled Deliveries Work?
Contractors request a specific delivery date and time directly through ezPOD. Material Providers see the request, confirm the time, and everyone knows exactly when materials are arriving.
No phone tag. No miscommunication. No wasted trips.
The Driver gets the confirmed schedule, loads the truck, and delivers on time. The Contractor plans their crew around a real commitment instead of a rough estimate. The material provider manages their fleet with real data instead of scattered requests.
The Point: Simple coordination through one system beats endless phone calls every single time.
What Are the Benefits for Contractors?
When deliveries happen on schedule, you plan your projects with confidence. Framers show up when lumber arrives. Concrete crews pour when rebar is on site. Labor costs drop because nobody’s standing around waiting for materials.
You’re running jobs based on confirmed times, not best guesses.
Key Benefit: Stop wasting labor hours waiting for deliveries you were told would “be there between 10 and 2.”
What Do Material Providers Get?
Better scheduling means better resource allocation. You’re not scrambling to figure out which delivery is urgent or fielding angry calls about missed windows.
You see all requests in one place. You confirm what works for your schedule. Your drivers follow a plan instead of playing catch-up all day.
The Win: Manage your fleet with visibility instead of chaos. Your customers get reliable service without you drowning in coordination calls.
Why Does This Matter for Lenders?
Lenders get documentation proving materials were delivered exactly when they were supposed to be. GPS coordinates, timestamps, photos, and confirmed delivery schedules create a paper trail you trust.
This visibility reduces risk and speeds up draw requests.
What This Means: Fewer disputes, faster approvals, better documentation for every delivery.
Why Did We Build This?
Scheduled Deliveries isn’t some fancy new feature. It’s infrastructure construction has needed for decades but never got because most software companies don’t care enough to fix it.
We did.
This is what happens when you treat documentation as a system problem instead of a paperwork problem. GPS coordinates, timestamps, photos, and now confirmed delivery schedules. All at $2.99 per document with zero subscription fees.
Our Take: We’re not adding complexity. We’re digitizing what should’ve been obvious years ago.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do Contractors request a scheduled delivery?
Open ezPOD, select the delivery, and request your preferred date and time. The material provider gets notified and confirms the schedule.
Do Material Providers have to accept every delivery request?
Nope. You see the request and confirm what works for your schedule. You’re in control.
What happens if the driver misses the scheduled time?
The system tracks arrival times with GPS timestamps. Everyone sees when the delivery occurred, so there’s no confusion about what happened.
Does this cost extra?
No. Scheduled Deliveries is included in the standard $2.99 per document pricing. No subscriptions, no hidden fees.
Do we need special training to use this?
If you need training, we built it wrong. Request a time, confirm a time, deliver on time. That’s the whole system.
What if my driver doesn’t have a smartphone?
Your driver needs the ezPOD app to complete deliveries with GPS verification and timestamps. If they’re using paper PODs, they’re missing the whole point.
Will this work with our existing dispatch system?
ezPOD handles the delivery coordination and documentation. You manage dispatch however you want. The scheduled time shows up in the driver’s app when they’re ready to deliver.
How far in advance do we need to schedule deliveries?
As far out as you want. Request next Tuesday or three weeks from now. The Material Provider confirms what works for their schedule.
