# Guilbault tracking

> **In short:** To track a Guilbault shipment you need the GU bill number from the bill of lading, which you can enter on Guilbault’s public TMW trace page. M³ Tracker reads that same trace automatically for every Guilbault load you add, several times a day, and turns the TMW status codes into a plain timeline your team and your customers can follow.

Groupe Guilbault is one of the largest Québec-based LTL carriers, a fixture of the Québec–Ontario lanes that Canadian brokers book every day. Its tracking runs on a TMW (TruckMate) trace portal that returns raw status codes and, for some bills, several entries for one number. M³ Tracker handles both: it drills into the live bill and lets you switch if the number maps to more than one.

## How do you track a Guilbault shipment?

1. Find the carrier reference on the bill of lading or the pickup confirmation. You need the Guilbault bill number: GU followed by 7 digits (e.g. GU1356404).
2. Open Guilbault’s tracking page, enter the reference and read the latest scan.
3. Repeat for every load, every day, for every carrier you book with — or let M³ Tracker do it.

## How does M³ Tracker track Guilbault automatically?

Guilbault publishes tracking on a web portal but offers no API, so M³ Tracker reads the portal the way your coordinator would: a headless browser enters the Guilbault bill number: GU followed by 7 digits, one request per shipment per cycle with backoff, and the result is normalized into the same status timeline as every other carrier. Refreshed on a schedule during business hours (7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Eastern on business days).

- Your team sees every carrier in one dashboard, with the expected delivery date and an alert the moment it slips.
- Your customer gets a live tracking link with no login, and can subscribe to SMS updates from it.
- Status changes are logged with a timestamp, so “where is it?” has an answer before anyone asks.

## What do Guilbault statuses mean?

Guilbault reports the codes below. M³ Tracker keeps the raw code and maps it to one of its own buckets (booked, picked up, in transit, delivered, plus delayed and cancelled when reported), so your dashboard reads the same across carriers.

| Code | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| AVAIL | Available for dispatch; not picked up yet. |
| ARRSHIP | Driver arrived at the shipper; freight not loaded yet. |
| DEPSHIP | Departed the shipper: picked up. |
| ENROUTE | En route between terminals. |
| DOCKED | Docked at a terminal. |
| ARRCONS | Arrived at the consignee; delivery in progress, not delivered yet. |
| DEPCONS | Departed the consignee: delivered. |
| DELVD | Delivered. |
| BILLD | Billed after delivery. |
| HOLD | Shipment on hold. |
| ATTEMPT | Pickup or delivery attempted. |
| CANCL | Bill cancelled. |

## Frequently asked questions

### Does M³ Tracker track Guilbault shipments automatically?

Yes. Guilbault is tracked automatically today. Add the reference once and the status updates on its own.

### Which number do I need to track a Guilbault shipment?

You need the Guilbault bill number: GU followed by 7 digits (e.g. GU1356404).

### Why does my Guilbault number show several bills?

A bill of lading can resolve to more than one Guilbault bill when a load was re-booked or a bill was cancelled and recreated. M³ Tracker drills into the live bill automatically and shows the others so you can switch if the wrong one was picked.

### What does DEPCONS mean on a Guilbault trace?

DEPCONS means the truck departed the consignee, which is Guilbault’s delivered code. ARRCONS, one step earlier, only means the truck arrived at the receiver; M³ Tracker does not mark the load delivered until DEPCONS, DELVD or COMPLETE appears.

### How often is a Guilbault status updated in M³ Tracker?

On a schedule during business hours, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Eastern on business days, and on demand with the Refresh button. Each change is timestamped, and your customers can receive it by SMS and on their tracking link.
