Pre-notification via Portbase simplifies visits to UWT

As of today, at 10 AM, hauliers are able to use the Portbase service HCN Road to pre-notify containers at the UWT locations Bunschotenweg and Waalhaven Westzijde. Following the pre-notification, the required status information is automatically sent. From Wednesday the 15th of February, it will be mandatory to pre-notify visits and make use of the TAR code and Cargo Card.

Advantages 

UWT will connect two depots to the Portbase service HCN Road. This brings the following benefits: 

• One single window for a growing number of terminals and depots 
• Advance insight into container status through status requests and pre-notifications 
• Easy access to the UWT depots via TAR code (Truck Appointment Reference) 
• No longer necessary to call at the service desk 
• Pre-notifying a container: during the day, at night and at the weekend 
• Your drivers are in and out of the terminal faster 

Practical information 

As of today, you can immediately start pre-notifying. If you make use of HCN Road through a system interface, you will find the required codes below. We have also communicated these codes to your software supplier.
