The Driver and Receiver Page
The no-login page drivers and receiving crews use to work a delivery from a phone.
Last updated 7 days ago
Every delivery has a page anyone can open on a phone with no login and no account. Scan a QR code or tap a link and the whole trip is there. This is how drivers and receiving crews work a delivery without being users in Building Swell.
Sharing the link
Three ways to get it into someone's hands.

The printed sheet is usually the easiest. It goes with the load, and anyone who ends up handling the trip can scan it.
What the driver sees
The page shows the delivery, its stops in order, and what's on the truck. Each stop lists the cargo loading or unloading there, and a Navigate button opens directions.

Working a stop
Each stop follows the same shape.
- Arrive. The button reads Start loading or Start unloading depending on the stop, and stamps the arrival time.
- Tick the cargo. Packs and materials get marked Loaded or Delivered. There's a mark all option per section.
- Depart. Stamps the departure time and moves the trip on.
The gap between arrive and depart is time on site, not unload time. It includes waiting at the gate.
Logging an issue
If a stop doesn't go to plan, record it. Pick a reason and who carries the cost.
Responsibility is Carrier, Shipper or Receiver. A free text note rides alongside.
Fixing a mistake
Every mark can be undone from the same screen. Undo arrive, Undo depart, Clear issue, and individual cargo ticks all reverse. A mis-tap in a cab doesn't need a call back to the office.
The confirmation form
If the delivery has a confirmation form, the driver or receiver fills it in at the drop. It captures a signature, a photo and the location where it was submitted.
Wrong location scans still go through. They're recorded rather than blocked, so a bad GPS read never strands a driver.
Location history shows on the Timeline tab in the app. That tab only appears for people with permission to view location data.
Tips
Decide who signs off before you roll it out. See Completing, Cancelling and Archiving a Delivery for the trade off.
The link works on any phone. No app to install, and no account for the driver.
