Opendock Transition
Effective: March 3rd, 2025
Overview
MR Williams has implemented a new online appointment scheduling system called Opendock! Your Carriers will
now be able to schedule Inbound appointments for our warehouse and many others.
It’s easy, you can schedule in less than 5 minutes by following these steps:
- Go to http://www.schedule.opendock.com/register
- Click “Register for FREE”
- Enter your name and e-mail and create a password
- Use https://schedule.opendock.com/app/login to login

Getting Started | NEW – Opendock Scheduling Portal – Loadsmart
Benefits
One username and one password for thousands of warehouses. Eliminate the need to have usernames, passwords,
and links for hundreds of different warehouse locations to schedule an appointment.
Visibility to all scheduled appointments across different companies and warehouse locations through a single view
on the My Appointments page.
If you are a large carrier or brokerage booking hundreds or thousands of appointments per month with Opendock
we also offer API integration. This would allow your company to integrate Opendock into their TMS and schedule
appointments directly without ever needing to leave your TMS.

Key Information
When scheduling a PO in Opendock, vendors and/or carriers will need to have the following information readily available:

Our preferred carriers are:

We prefer not to partner with the following carriers:

The transition to Opendock will be mandatory as of March 3rd. All delivery appointments must be scheduled through the Opendock system from that date forward. The use of non-preferred carriers could result in a fine of up to $500.
