The NEW Version 5 of *** AbHaulier *** is now available to download.

Cascade Software has been in the abnormal loads business for more than 14 years. We provide Highways Agency Areas and Bridge Authorities with *** ABLOADS ***, *** ABLOADS  Management *** and *** ABLOADS  QuickCheck ***, the software packages which many HA MACs and bridge authorities use to manage and check hauliers' and plant operators' abnormal load notifications.

We launched *** AbHaulier *** to bring the same benefits of simplicity, security and uniformity of operation to the hauliers and plant operators who submit these notifications.

• sends notifications by email or fax, as set up for each authority, and integrates both email and fax messaging seamlessly within the program – all you need is an email account and desirably a modem on your computer with its own telephone line (some authorities still require notification by fax)
• is multi-depot and multi-company – it can separately manage notifications for an unlimited number of companies or company depots on the same computer
• is multi-user – install copies on several computers on your network, but keep your notification data synchronised
• NEW - gets route directions from Google Maps and transfers them straight back into your notification ready to send
• keeps your authority contact details updated from ESDAL
• keeps complete up to date records of all your notifications, who you have sent them to, all the reply messages you receive, and any amendments you make
• saves all relevant vehicle details for re-use – including the same vehicle with differing trailers
• saves regular route descriptions as standard together with the authorities to be notified for that route 
• lets you copy forward all or part of old notifications as the basis for new
• automatically generates and transmits your notifications in 1979 or 2003 format
