Track R+L Carriers shipments in real-time with Paxlo. Get delivery updates, proof of delivery, and full visibility into your LTL freight.
R+L Carriers is one of the largest less-than-truckload (LTL) carriers in North America, handling millions of shipments annually across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Founded in 1967, the company has grown from a regional operation into a critical player in freight logistics, serving manufacturers, retailers, e-commerce businesses, and third-party logistics providers. With over 130 service centers and a fleet of thousands of tractors and trailers, R+L Carriers moves everything from industrial equipment to consumer goods.
The carrier operates a hub-and-spoke network designed to balance speed with cost efficiency. This means your shipment gets consolidated with others at regional distribution points before heading to its final destination, keeping LTL rates competitive while maintaining reliable delivery windows.
R+L Carriers competes directly with YRC Worldwide (now Yellow Corporation), Old Dominion, and ArcBest, but has maintained strong market share by investing in technology infrastructure and customer service. The company runs a modern tracking system and has progressively improved digital integrations to help shippers monitor freight in real-time.
Paxlo pulls R+L Carriers tracking data directly from the carrier's API, so you get live updates without logging into multiple websites. When you input your R+L pro number or bill of lading number into Paxlo, the app fetches current location, estimated delivery date, and delivery status in seconds.
The integration covers the full journey. You'll see when your shipment picks up at the origin, when it reaches regional hubs, when it's out for delivery, and final proof of delivery with signature confirmation. For time-sensitive shipments, Paxlo sends push notifications so you're never caught off guard by delays.
For businesses shipping multiple LTL loads per week, Paxlo saves hours of manual checking. Dispatchers can monitor fleet movements, customer service teams get accurate delivery windows to share with clients, and operations managers catch delays early enough to notify downstream recipients.
R+L Carriers handles roughly 5% of the US LTL market by revenue, competing in a space dominated by union carriers and non-union operators. The company went public in 2022 under the ticker RLEC, signaling investor confidence in the LTL segment and the company's digital transformation efforts.
The carrier has modernized its tech stack significantly in the past five years. Their driver app, customer portal, and API connectivity have all improved, making integrations like Paxlo possible. This push toward transparency reflects broader industry trends, as shippers increasingly demand real-time visibility into freight movements rather than once-a-day email updates.
R+L Carriers publishes guaranteed service levels for major lanes. A shipment from the East Coast to the Midwest typically takes 2-4 days, depending on origin and destination hubs. Cross-country moves usually take 5-7 days. Saturday and time-specific services add cost but give you control over when freight arrives at your facility.
Like all carriers, R+L occasionally experiences delays from weather, traffic, or equipment issues. Paxlo helps you spot these delays as they happen rather than discovering them after the delivery window closes. Early warning allows you to adjust receiving schedules, notify your customers, or arrange alternative unloading if needed.
R+L Carriers' native tracking portal works fine if you're shipping with only one carrier. But most businesses use multiple carriers for different freight lanes and service levels. Paxlo consolidates R+L Carriers tracking alongside UPS Freight, XPO, ABF Freight, and dozens of other carriers into a single mobile interface. You avoid app fatigue and get consistent tracking data across your entire supply chain.
The app also maintains tracking history so you can audit past shipments, verify delivery claims, and track performance trends. If a customer disputes when they received an order, you have timestamped proof stored in Paxlo without hunting through your email or R+L's website.
Download Paxlo today and start tracking your R+L Carriers shipments with one tap. Get real-time updates, delivery notifications, and full visibility into every LTL move.
Open Paxlo and tap the '+' button to add a tracking number. Enter your R+L pro number or bill of lading number, select R+L Carriers from the carrier list, and tap Track. Paxlo connects to R+L's tracking system and pulls the current status, location, and estimated delivery date. You can save the shipment to your account for ongoing updates.
R+L uploads tracking information to their system shortly after pickup, usually within 1-2 hours. If your shipment was just picked up, it may not be in their system yet. Double-check that you've entered the pro number correctly, including any leading zeros. Pro numbers are typically 7 digits. If the shipment is more than a few hours old and still not showing, contact R+L customer service to confirm the shipment was dispatched.
Yes. Once your shipment is delivered, Paxlo displays the delivery status, delivery date and time, and any signature or proof of delivery notes from the driver. If the delivery included a photo signature, you can view it in Paxlo. This is especially useful for LTL freight where a driver may leave the shipment at a dock and sign off electronically.
Absolutely. Once you add an R+L shipment to Paxlo, toggle on notifications in the shipment settings. You'll receive push notifications when the shipment picks up, arrives at sorting facilities, is out for delivery, and is finally delivered. You can customize notification preferences in your Paxlo app settings.
Paxlo shows the promised delivery date and current status, so you can spot delays early. If your shipment misses the guaranteed window or the status hasn't updated in several hours, contact R+L Carriers' customer service with your pro number. They can investigate equipment issues, accidents, or weather delays. In Paxlo, you can also review the tracking history to see exactly when the shipment slowed down, which helps you explain the delay to your customers.
Yes, Paxlo is free to download and use. You can track one shipment without creating an account. If you want to save multiple shipments and set up custom notifications, create a free account in the app. Paxlo also offers premium features for businesses shipping high volumes, but basic tracking is always free.
