Communications
How Caravan reaches you.
Freight moves on communication. Caravan Supply Chain coordinates by phone, email, and text message with carriers, dispatchers, drivers, customer contacts, and receiving facilities — this page explains what each channel is used for, and how to control the text messages.
Channels
Phone
(312) 767-3612
Dispatch, exception handling, and anything that needs a decision now. Our Operations team works the phone first when a load is moving.
Email
support@caravansc.com
Rate confirmations, documentation, settlement, and anything that needs a paper trail or an attachment.
Text message
Opt-in required
Short operational updates while a load is active — offers, dispatch, appointments, ETAs, and document reminders. Sent only to people who have opted in.
Who receives what
What reaches you depends on your role on the load. Nobody receives everything, and text messages go only to people who have opted in.
- Motor carriers and dispatchers
- Load offers and available freight, rate and load confirmations, dispatch instructions, appointment changes, and documentation reminders.
- Drivers and owner-operators
- Pickup and delivery details, facility directions and gate instructions, check calls, ETA requests, and delay coordination.
- Customers and shipper contacts
- Shipment status, appointment confirmations, delivery notifications, and responses to questions about active freight. Load offers are never sent to customer contacts.
- Warehouses and receiving facilities
- Appointment scheduling and changes, arrival windows, and the coordination around a specific pickup or delivery.
