Loomis Canada Tracking Guide: How Do Loomis Tracking Numbers Work

How do Loomis Tracking Numbers work in Canada?

Loomis tracking works by tracing and tracking your packages using the hand-held computers the drivers carry with them. Vital information about your shipments will be scanned at key locations as your shipment moves from one point to another. Essential Information regarding who received your package, what time it was received, the waybill number, parcel number and other important information regarding your package will be recorded.

You can check the progress using the ’Loomis Track Now’ application at the Loomis website.

First, add your tracking number associated with your package. There are two ways to track a package that is via the Loomis waybill or the parcel number. Both have no required format and is dependent on what the shipper fill in the reference number sheet.

Examples:

• Domestic tracking number: dom1234567
• International tracking number example: manny12345yu

Where do I locate my Loomis Tracking Number?

Before shipping, a waybill must be filled out. Here you will find the mandatory field of the reference number and this will act as your Loomis tracking number (ex: thisismyackag132).

Loomis may use freight shipping (e.g. bus to rail to bus) while shipping your package while International shipping Loomis will track the package by recording information as it moves from one coast to another coast.

To use Loomis Tracking to track your package while it moves, go to their website and under Track Now you would be able to choose either via waybill or parcel number to track your package (e.g. waybill, reference number). It is possible to input a total of 25 Loomis waybill numbers separated by a comma.

Packages going into America will be using a Paps tracker. This helps with tracking your shipment through customs and makes going through faster and helps track information whether the shipping has been held at customs. Pars trackers are for shipments going through Canadian customs and have the same functions as Paps trackers.
