About Hinks Haulage 

Hinks Haulage is a family-run UK haulage company with a fleet of 25 vehicles, including rigid and articulated lorries, as well as extensive warehousing and storage facilities. With so many moving parts, keeping everything running smoothly is no small task. Richard Greenaway, Head of Administration at Hinks Haulage, oversees the warehouse and network operations. Richard and the team have been using RentUrApp for a few years, starting with MoveSist™, ScanSist™ and PODSist™, and are now successfully using our latest-generation HazApp, Hazcan and HazGo apps in their place.

When it came to choosing a new warehouse and fleet management system, Renturapp caught their attention.

Why Hinks Haulage Chose RentUrApp
“Renturapp is the first system like this we’ve used here,” Richard explains. “I’ve had previous experience with these kinds of systems and networks elsewhere, so I had a good idea of what to expect.”

The decision to go with Renturapp was straightforward:

  • Competitive pricing – it offered great value for a system that does everything they need.
  • Helpful staff – the team made the process simple and reassuring.
  • User-friendly system – everything they needed was already included; no customisation required.

“Implementation was quick and straightforward, and the learning process was easy too. Everything we need is already there—we didn’t feel any need for customisation.”

The Solution

Hinks Haulage are currently using the following RentUrApp apps. 

Hinks Haulage were early adopters of RentUrApp’s digital solutions. They are now successfully using HazApp in place of MoveSist™, Hazcan in place of ScanSist™ and HazGo in place of PODSist™, giving them our latest-generation transport management, barcode scanning and in-cab driver technology.

Hazcan – Scan barcode labels on pallet freight

  • The app can be integrated with external systems, such as Vigo, where data is sent after scanning. 
  • Software in the app ensures all data is securely stored on the device until it has been successfully uploaded. 
  • Hazcan has two available versions; the first has a range of 10m and is useful for heights such as from the top deck of a trailer.  Version two utilises a phone’s camera with a smaller range. 

HazGo –Drivers companion app for logistics network

  • HazGo is the mobile driver companion for the HazApp transport platform.  Drivers use it during transport executions for location reporting, proof of delivery and proof of collection, feeding real-time updates back to the planning desk so operations always know where a job is. 

Outstanding Support and Recommendations

The level of support that Hinks Haulage has received from RentUrApp haa been a standout feature. 

“The support, I must say, is second to none. Always a single call or email away if we need anything, and everything is explained really well.”

And would Richard recommend Renturapp?

“I would recommend Renturapp to anyone. It’s easy to use, and the support is always there if needed.”
