Technology is making life on the road easier and less solitary for drivers. Apps such as Skype, Facebook, and Twitter are a key ways to stay socially connected to family, friends, and colleagues. Technology has also played a key role in increasing the productivity of trucking operations. Pegasus Transtech is one company who has facilitated this, with their TRANSFLO Express truck stop Scanning and TRANSFLO Mobile Scanning Services. UWT has had both these services available to our drivers for several years. United World Transportation’s TRANSFLO program makes it easy for drivers to send in-transit paperwork such as border crossing documents, and send invoice documents to get paid faster; it is easy to use & convenient, and provides clear documents at a lower cost option vs. faxing. Here’s the run down on the services:
