Abstract Our focus in this study is the vehicle dispatching, routing and packing problem of a cargo company branch in Izmir, Turkey. The daily problem involves determining which parcels or packages should be distributed in which vehicle, determining the order in which these packages will be deployed, determining the route through which the vehicles will make the distribution, and finally determining how the packages should be placed in the vehicles. Thus, the whole daily distribution process of the cargo branch is of focus. We develop a web-based decision support tool to handle this hard-to-tackle problem. Within the decision support system (DSS), we handle the problem in stages. By developing an intuitive algorithm, the delivery route-based three-dimensional packing is solved very quickly. The results are shared with the user through a user-friendly interface.
