Load Attachments: Photos and Documents

Drivers assigned to Load Lock or Load Lock+ loads can upload photos and documents directly to the load using the Highway mobile app. This gives brokers and carriers a simple way to collect and view load-related documentation in one place.

How Load Attachments Work

Once a driver is assigned to a load, they can access that load in the Highway mobile app and add attachments from their device. Drivers may be assigned by the broker through the TMS or Highway UI, or by the carrier.

From the mobile app, drivers can:

  • Take a photo

  • Scan a document

  • Upload an existing document

    • PDF is the only accepted file type for upload

Drivers can upload a single file or add multiple attachments at once. There is no limit to the number of attachments that can be added to a load.

When uploading an attachment, the driver must choose a label that best describes the file. Available labels include:

  • Bill of Lading

  • Cab Card

  • Cargo Condition

  • Proof of Delivery

  • Scale Ticket

  • Seal

  • Trailer Condition

  • Trailer License Plate

  • Truck License Plate

  • VIN Plate

  • Other

Viewing Load Attachments

Broker users can view and download load attachments from the Documents tab in Highway’s load UI.

Only broker users with permission to view and manage loads can access and download attachments.

Troubleshooting

If a driver is unable to access a load or upload attachments, confirm the following:

  • The driver is a Highway user. Drivers must either request to join their carrier or be invited by the carrier before they can sign in to the Highway mobile app.

  • The driver has shared their location with the Highway mobile app. Location sharing is required to access the Loads page.

  • The driver is assigned to the load. Drivers will only see loads assigned to them, and only the assigned driver can upload attachments to that load.

Carrier users with load management permissions can view attachments, but they cannot add, download, or delete them.
