Why Even Old-School Drivers Love the App (Eventually)

“Didn’t think I’d use it… now I’d never go back.”

We get it. Not everyone’s a fan of new tech—especially in an industry like ours where doing things the old way has worked just fine for years.

So when we talk to tipper truck operators about using an app to track jobs, manage loads, or send PODs, the response from some drivers is usually:

“That’s not for me.”
“I’m no good with phones.”
“Just give me a pen and a docket.”

And yet... give it a week, and most of those same drivers say:

“It’s grand actually.”
“Much easier than I thought.”
“I’d hate to go back to paper.”

Why the App Works—Even for the Old-School Crowd

We built Tipper360 to be simple. No clutter, no complicated menus—just what a driver needs, when they need it.

Here’s what makes the difference:

✅ Clear and easy buttons

Drivers log a job with a couple of taps. It’s faster than filling out a docket.

✅ No more chasing paperwork

No printing, no signing, no trying to find a pen under the seat. Just tap, done.

✅ Keeps them out of trouble

Everything’s logged: what they picked up, where they dropped it, and when. No more disputes or “he said, she said.”

✅ Less stress

Drivers spend less time on admin, fewer calls from the office, and no blame when a docket goes missing.

Real Feedback From Real Drivers

“Didn’t think I’d get on with it. But it’s handy, and I don’t miss messing with dockets.”

“I was the one giving out about ‘apps.’ Now I’m showing the lads how to use it.”

“It’s easier. I can finish my day and not bring work home. That’s all I need.”

It’s About Making Life Easier, Not Harder

We’re not asking drivers to become tech experts. We’re just giving them a tool that takes the hassle out of paperwork and helps everyone stay organised.

The truth is, once they see how it works—and how much time it saves—they’re all in.

Final Word

Old-school drivers aren’t stubborn—they just don’t want tech that slows them down or gets in the way. And that’s fair.

But when the tech actually makes their day easier? They’re the first to say:

“Yeah, this works.”

Hub360 is built for them. Simple, quick, reliable—and no more lost dockets.
