Electronic Bill of lading

Go Paperless Without Changing How Your Drivers Work

Waste and logistics run on paper: bills of lading, manifests, shipping documents. Paper gets lost. Paper gets smudged. Paper gets filled out wrong. And paper slows everything down, from compliance to getting paid. WiQ's eBOL replaces that paper with a compliant digital document, whether your drivers work directly in WiQ or in the systems they already use every day.

The problem

The Cost of Paper Is Bigger Than You Think

Paper documentation quietly drains time and money from every load.

Illegible Handwriting

Leads to billing disputes, rejected loads, and manual follow-up that ties up dispatch and admin for hours.

Drivers Spend Time on Paperwork

Every minute a driver spends on paperwork is a minute not driving. When they're rushed, details get missed. Documentation errors become compliance exposure and costly rework.

Invoicing Waits on Paper

Every day a BOL sits in a truck or on a desk is a day you're not getting paid. Cash flow suffers silently.
How we work

One Platform, Two Ways to Work

WiQ eBOL meets drivers where they already are, whether your team works entirely in WiQ or relies on another platform for elogging and invoicing.

Option 1
Work Directly in WiQ
For teams that want a single system for documentation, tracking, and handoff.
  • Create and manage digital bills of lading directly from the field. No paperwork, no rekeying.
  • Capture required load details, signatures, and timestamps at each step for compliant, complete records.
  • Track each load in real time from pickup to delivery, with clear visibility into status and handoffs.
  • Instantly access and share load documentation with dispatch, receivers, and regulators.
Option 2
Work in Your Preferred System, Powered by WiQ
For teams using elogging, dispatch, or digital invoicing tools. WiQ integrates behind the scenes so drivers never leave the system they know.
  • Driver enters load info in their system. WiQ applies compliance logic and generates the eBOL.
  • Sign-off is built in via text message. No login required. Consignors sign from any phone in seconds.
  • Once the job is complete, WiQ sends all details back to the invoicing system automatically.
  • No re-keying, no waiting on paper, no delay between delivery and invoice.
Integration

Most of the BOL is Already Filled In

When a driver accepts a WiQ ticket and chooses to create a BOL, the fields that matter most are pulled directly from the ticket. Generator details, material classifications, UN numbers, and hazard class all carry over automatically. The driver reviews, confirms what's already there, and adds only what's left.

The BOL is completed across three short pages before the driver previews and confirms the document.

Compliance

Fully Digital. Fully Compliant.

Most digital BOL tools still require a paper copy to ride along with the load.
WiQ doesn't.

WiQ holds Equivalency Certificate SU 14806 from Transport Canada, which grants our customers an exemption from the TDG regulation requiring a paper shipping document to accompany a shipment, even for Dangerous Goods.

This is what makes a fully digital TDG workflow possible with WiQ. Not just a digital copy of a paper document, but a legally compliant, fully paperless process.

The Benefits

What You Get, Regardless of How You Work

Legible, Complete Records Every Time

No more deciphering handwriting or chasing missing fields. Every document is clean, complete, and timestamped.

Time Back for your Drivers

Less paperwork, more driving, fewer errors. Drivers stay focused on the job, not the forms.

Lower Compliance Risk

Required fields, signatures, and timestamps are captured accurately at every step, so audits are never a scramble.

Faster Payment Cycles

Job details flow from the field to invoicing without manual handling. Get paid as soon as the load is delivered.

A Single Source of Truth

Final documents live in WiQ, accessible to dispatch, receivers, and regulators on demand from anywhere.
The process

How a Load Moves Through WiQ eBOL

1

Load Details are Entered

By the driver in WiQ, or in the driver's preferred system, which sends the details to WiQ automatically.

2

WiQ Generates a Compliant eBOL or Manifest

Using its compliance logic and the Transport Canada Equivalency Certificate. No paper required.

3

The Driver Works the Load

With the digital document accessible throughout the journey, on any device, at any point in transit.

4

Signatures are Captured

In WiQ directly, or via text message to the consignor. No login required. Sign off from any phone in seconds.

5

The Completed Document is Stored in WiQ

Accessible to everyone who needs it: dispatch, receivers, compliance teams, and regulators.

6

Job Details Flow to Invoicing

Billing happens as soon as the load is delivered, not days later when paper finally makes it back to the office.

Ready to Leave Paper Behind?

Whether you're a fleet manager modernising documentation across your operation, or an owner-operator tired of chasing paper BOLs, WiQ eBOL is built for how you actually work.
