It is the tracking number C.H. Robinson gives shippers for each order, a 15-character code of letters and digits. It appears in C.H. Robinson's shipment emails and in the Navisphere tracking link, and it is the easiest number to track with.

Can I track a C.H. Robinson shipment with an order or load number?

Yes. Choose "C.H. Robinson order number" for the number on your order confirmation, or "Load number" for the number on the load and carrier paperwork. All three reference types return the same shipment.

Why is my C.H. Robinson shipment not found?

Check the number and the reference type first. C.H. Robinson also keeps tracking events for a limited time, so a shipment that was delivered several months ago may no longer show, even with the right number.

C.H. Robinson arranges the shipment and a carrier hauls it. Once a carrier accepts the load ("Carrier assigned"), its name and SCAC code appear on the result.
