LOADS
A Load is a supplier-initiated request for a pickup at one of the supplier locations.
A complete Load Request record contains a number of data points that we’ll need in order to schedule the load for you:
- Customer Load ID. (This can be any series of characters you use internally to identify the load.)
- YUL Load Number (optional)
- Load Pick-up Location.
- You may add a new location if you need to. See VI- Adding a Load Location to learn how to add a Load Location to your account.
- Type of Load (ISO Tank or Container)
- “Supply Source” refers to the type of material:
- Used Cooking Oil, Yellow Grease, Beef Tallow, Chicken Fat, Vegetable Oil or Other
- Time window during which the Load will be available for pick-up.
- Estimated load weights. (Precise weights will be entered at the weigh station).
A completed Load record will contain additional information inputted at the appropriate time: Under Custom Information, the following data points will be inserted when available:
- the Container Number
- at least two Seal Numbers for the container.
- the empty scale weight
- the full-scale weight.
