These companies rely on the #Bude
Are you familiar with this? Paperwork, Excel chaos, coordination efforts?
Your load carrier management costs you time, nerves and money every day. Manual processes, confusing Excel lists and a lack of transparency make the management of loading aids, i.e. pallets, containers and racks, a never-ending task. The result: high costs, slow processes, frustrated colleagues, suppliers and customers.
Manual processes
Whether movement is recorded on paper slips or coordinated via email and telephone, these processes are error-prone, time-consuming and hardly scalable.
Loss & re-purchases
Without digital transparency, load carriers disappear unnoticed. Replacement purchases become the norm, and discussions with partners become part of everyday life. Every loss costs money and trust.

Dr. Volker Lange
Head of Packaging Logistics at Fraunhofer IML
As one of the pioneers of the digital transformation of the logistics industry, part of our strategy is to constantly optimise our processes in order to make our team's work as easy as possible and to use our resources efficiently. Logistikbude's cloud-based software can be integrated directly into our existing processes and is therefore quickly ready for use - that convinced us straight away.
Jens Kleiner
Chief Operating Officer
I was surprised that there was already a perfect solution for us for our daily challenges regarding the exchange of Euro pallets. We were able to start using Logistikbude's solution in a very short period of time and thus benefit from a complete digital process that transparently displays the exchange processes and exchange accounts, including balances, in real time and at the same time offers us an integrated solution for centralised communication with the exchange partners.
Maik Westenberg
Head of Digital Transformation (CDO)
Logistikbude has significantly streamlined our booking processes for CC containers in plant shipping, saving us around a third of our working time. The exchange processes between customers, forwarders, suppliers and our employees have become more transparent, making coordination easier. It also provides us with a precise overview of current stocks in real time.
Steffen Ehlers
Responsible for order processing and logistics
Thanks to the Logistikbude, there is no need to send out document receipts, which means we can use our human resources more effectively and significantly reduce paper consumption at the same time.
Anja Bachmann
Head of loading equipment management
We use Logistikbude as part of our construction site tool rental service and have been able to reduce loss by up to 50 % since we started working together. Serialising the tools not only facilitates traceability, but also has a psychological effect: the employees on the construction sites handle the tools more carefully and feel responsible for returning them.
David Skowasch
Strategic Procurement & Projectmanagement
Thanks to the automated reusable asset process, the manual need to clarify the status of empties orders is completely eliminated. This makes our day-to-day work easier and significantly improves communication - both internally and with our many partners.
Klaus Stadtmüller
Head of SCM-TVL
We usually develop our software solutions ourselves. However, the software from Logistikbude met our requirements exactly. We therefore made a conscious decision in favour of a professional, ready-made solution for the tracking and management of our load carriers.
Matthias Ehrenstein
Head of IT
The cooperation with Logistikbude is customer and performance-oriented. Since using the software in September 2023, we no longer need to manually enter loading equipment slips, which has already reduced our administrative effort by 50%. The trend is rising.
Roland Huber
Logistics Project Specialist
We focus on transparency. With Logistikbude, our customers and service providers can view their stocks and planned orders ‘live’ at any time. Both sides work faster, more efficiently and with fewer resources as a result. I particularly appreciate the solution-orientated communication with Logistikbude.
