Loading dock scheduling for airports

Airport loading docks receive deliveries for restaurants, shops, and airport operations, and many of those goods have to clear security screening before they go airside. When suppliers arrive at random, trucks queue on busy landside roads and screening staff can't plan their shifts. SimpleDock gives airport logistics teams a booking link for every supplier, so deliveries arrive in set windows with the details security needs.

What's broken today

The dock-scheduling problems your operation actually has.

Suppliers arriving all at once

Concessions and retail deliveries cluster in the early morning, and the dock and screening area can't absorb them all at once.

Screening that can't be planned

If you don't know which deliveries are coming, you can't schedule the people who screen and escort them airside.

Missing details at the dock

A delivery that arrives without the supplier, vehicle, or destination details security needs gets held at the dock.

This is what your suppliers see when they click your link.

How SimpleDock fits

Tuned for how your dock actually runs.

Required details at booking

Ask for supplier name, destination unit, vehicle plate, or anything else your security process needs, and make it required.

Slots that match screening capacity

Limit how many deliveries can arrive per hour and per door, so arrivals never outrun the people available to screen them.

Approvals for non-routine deliveries

Route construction, equipment, or one-off deliveries through an approval step before they're confirmed.

Reminders with dock directions

Drivers get a confirmation and reminder with the time and dock instructions, which matters at a large, unfamiliar site.

Frequently asked questions

Does SimpleDock handle airport security screening?
No. SimpleDock schedules when deliveries arrive and captures the details you ask for. Screening, badging, and escorting stay with your airport's security process.
Can concessions tenants book their own suppliers' deliveries?
Yes. Share the booking link with tenants or directly with their suppliers. Each booking captures the destination unit and any other fields you require.
Can we use SimpleDock at a consolidation center?
Yes. A consolidation center is a dock like any other: set up its doors, hours, and appointment types, and share the link with suppliers.
