Stop Leaving Detention Pay on the Table

Automated detention and accessorial charge recovery made easy

We match each load to the exact free-time and accessorial terms agreed with your specific broker or shipper, not generic defaults.
ChargeGuard automatically calculates what you're owed and creates submission-ready claims or invoices for every detention and accessorial event.
Not a generic detention calculator -- the terms you actually agreed to, applied every time
ChargeGuard applies each broker or shipper's actual free-time and accessorial terms to every claim, not a one-size-fits-all default rule.
Arrival and departure times are automatically captured, eliminating manual tracking errors.
Every claim is documented and formatted for immediate submission, saving you time and effort.
