Published prices: DropHaul lists every self-serve plan and has no contract. Summit sells editions by quote.
Documented customer automation: AutoShare spells out all 13 events, the channel for each, and how per-customer overrides work. Summit advertises instant customer notifications without documenting the events or channels.
A two-way customer inbox: Customer replies to DropHaul texts and emails land in one thread with delivery receipts. Summit does not document two-way texting.
Fleet integrations and AI: DropHaul connects Samsara, Motive, Geotab, Verizon Connect, WEX, and Fuelman, and offers an official MCP server. Summit does not document these.

AutoShare tells customers before they call

Customers get a text or email when their service is scheduled, when the driver is on the way, when the job is done, and when the invoice goes out. Your office stops fielding “is the unit coming?” calls, and you choose how each customer hears from you. Included on Pro, Fleet, and Enterprise plans.

Leaving Summit? Bring everything with you.

Most owners move over on their own with the built-in importer. If you’d rather hand it off, Switch & Setup is our hands-on migration: we bring your data over, set DropHaul up the way you run, and train your crew at a competitive rate, usually in a day to a few weeks.

We work from Excel, Google Sheets, CSV and TSV exports, PDF route sheets and invoices, Desktop software, or another dispatch tool.

Pickup. We collect what you have
Spreadsheets, exports from your current software, even PDF route sheets. Messy is fine.
Service. We set DropHaul up
Customers, sites, units, and jobs land in the right fields, and DropHaul is configured around how you already run.
Drop. Your crew goes live
We walk the office and drivers through it, then review your first routes with you.

What Switch & Setup covers

Migration: Customers, contacts, sites, units, trucks, jobs, and open invoices moved over and checked for duplicates and gaps.
Configuration: Yards, trucks, service schedules, pricing, and AutoShare set up to match how your operation works today.
Training: Your office learns dispatch and billing; your drivers learn the iPhone app they will carry every day.
Go-live support: We plan the cutover with you and review the first routes, with an on-site setup day available.

Doing it yourself

The importer reads PDF, CSV, TSV, and Excel. Match columns, fix flagged rows, review, and import across 12 record types, from customers, contacts, job sites, units to fuel entries.
