We will explain how to track Saia packages step by step.
Saia's tracking website is the most direct and convenient way for anyone to track the status and updates of their carriers. The interesting thing about Saia shipment tracking is that it offers a variety of options, as mentioned earlier. However, we are going to work with the Saia Pro number. This is an 11-digit unique number string. By simply entering this number, you can check the latest status of your shipment. You can enter as many as 30 Pro numbers at a single time.
Take Pro number 10184703510, for example. We've opened the Saia tracking page and entered the Pro number.
Once we've clicked 'Track,' the shipment details show up.
Let's first check the shipment information. After clicking the arrow, the detailed shipment information came into view. At the end of this section, you can find other types of Saia tracking numbers, such as the purchase order number, shipper number, pickup number, etc.
We needed to check when and where our carrier was. For that, we can check the "History" section. The second line is the last scan, which indicates the latest shipment progress.
Also, we've got to see the destination terminal information to schedule a pickup.
You can use ParcelPanel to track your Saia LTL freight. It is an all-in-one order tracking solution with over 1,100 carrier integrations. It provides real-time tracking information and shipment notifications via email for merchants and end customers.
With ParcelPanel, merchants can create a custom tracking page, draw insights from in-depth analytics, analyze customer behavior, and much more, while end customers can easily track their orders, find out the current status by using the Saia tracking number, and receive real-time shipment notifications.
There are two ways to use the ParcelPanel platform.
Step 1: Go to the ParcelPanel Website.
When you click on the link above, you will land on the Saia LTL Freight Tracking page, which looks like this.
Step 2: Enter your Saia tracking number.
Now, enter your Saia tracking number in the shipping confirmation email that you received. You can enter up to 30 Saia tracking numbers, with one per line. Then, click on 'Track.'
Step 3: Check the status of your shipment.
You will then see the latest status of your Saia LTL freight shipment.
For example, our Saia tracking number is 101847035103.
Notably, Saia supports 11-digit tracking numbers. Here the last digit is the pallet number. By entering 101847035103, 101847035101, 101847035102, and 10184703510 into the Saia package tracker on the ParcelPanel website, we get the same tracking information.
The Saia LTL Freight Tracking page on ParcelPanel is ideal for the shipper because the person doesn't need to find the contact information of the destination terminal and because all tracking information can be translated and exported easily.
If you run a Shopify store, you can use the ParcelPanel app to automate package tracking. To track Saia LTL freight shipment with this app, your customers are required to enter the Shopify store order number or the Saia tracking number on the order tracking page automatically created by ParcelPanel. What's more, they will return to your store to get the latest tracking updates.
You can track all your orders by going to "Orders" and enable notifications to keep your customers updated throughout the entire shipment journey and get in-depth analytics by using the Dashboard.
This is an example of the order tracking page created by ParcelPanel:
You can further customize the look and feel by going to the "Tracking Page" settings.
ParcelPanel can help businesses centralize Saia LTL Freight tracking, improve customer satisfaction and reduce WISMO-related support calls. This is because it seamlessly integrates with over 1,100 carriers via API, including Saia.
Saia assigns a unique identifier to each shipment for tracking purposes. The Saia tracking number can be a freight bill/Pro number, a pickup number, a BOL number, or else. Once you confirm your order with Saia, you will receive a tracking number via email. You can check the delivery schedule or estimated time of arrival of your freight shipment.
Generally, a Saia Pro number consists of 11 digits with no dashes in between. In particular, the Saia tracking number is composed of numbers only, with no letters and no hyphens. There is a check digit at the end which is not needed for tracking purposes.
If, by chance, you find a 12-digit Saia tracking number, the last digit can be the pallet number. This is because an LTL freight shipment might be transported using several pallets. If you enter a 12-digit tracking number on the Saia Track page, the last digit will be automatically omitted, as shown in the image below.

Saia strives to provide a fast delivery service. On the official website, Saia states that 85% of orders are delivered within two business days or 48 hours. However, the timing may vary depending on your location. You can use the Saia transit time calculator to find out. If you need expedited service, you can also choose Saia Custom Service.
If you would like to change your Saia freight delivery address before delivery, you must first request redirection or reroute through your account. If Saia approves your request, you can have your delivery location or address changed for $29.30 (fees may vary).
The Saia Pro number is a unique series of numbers that allows you to track updates on your Saia shipments. You can see the current Saia shipment status by entering this number on the Saia tracking page or a third-party shipment tracking website like ParcelPanel.
But sometimes, the Saia Pro number does not work. This is because the Saia Pro number may be incorrect, you entered the Saia Pro number incorrectly, Saia may not have scanned your shipment, or your shipment may have been canceled. If you have problems with your Saia Pro tracking number, please contact Saia ASAP.
