More control over GTM alerts for Shed 5 couriers

by Mike George

Shed 5 members now have even more control over the goods to move alerts they receive from the site, following an upgrade to the popular logistics billboard today.

Members can choose to receive alerts by SMS texts, free GPRS messages or emails. They can set preferences for each type of job (express, sameday, non-urgent, multi-drop etc).

This new feature extends the already impressive range of controls over alerts on the site, which lets couriers tailor the way their account works to fit in with the way they work and their availability. A Shed 5 courier can now choose to get – for example – instant alerts for express and sameday work, emails for non-urgent work, and even turn off alerts completely for types of work they are not interested in.

Shed 5 online logistics billboard and exchange is a favourite with owner driver couriers because of its low cost, no-frills approach to finding and sharing work, and extra features like this are helping to consolidate its position as a valuable tool for drivers who are on the road and need quick and easy mobile access to work.
