Your one-stop shop for LTL Shipping Services
Shippers spend $30-$100 billion per year on Less Than Truckload freight shipping. LTL plays a huge role in our nation’s supply chain which is why it’s crucial to pick the right network of carriers who can cut cost and exceed in customer service. With the evolution of technology, logistic companies have proven to be a value to shippers and carriers. Shippers are finding value in trusting recognized 3pl’s to do freight analysis to lower their overall annual freight spend. Rather than establishing LTL contracts with carriers directly or having multiple brokers, best practices suggest building collaboration around a nucleus of trust. That trust is made possible through transparency and mutual knowledge of each other’s operational network compatibility.
Service levels
When handling multiple orders daily, a transportation management software (TMS) to manage your operation is crucial. A successful TMS will allow you to quote, book, track & manage invoices in one portal. This is offered, free of charge, to our clients. Learn more from our technology page.
Negotiated Rating
Common LTL carriers use a very complex rating system. A pricing model that includes multiple variables; rigid classes, freight all kind (FAK), fixed discounts, Czarlite Pricing etc. Our job is to simplify it! Upon final negotiations, your online system will be preloaded with negotiated rates so it will be click n pick!!
Insurance/release valuation
For shippers in the LTL market, new technology, processes and management techniques are providing the infrastructure to support business focus more on their business and less on their shipping by trusting in a 3pl to be their outsourced logistics department.
Research and experience demonstrates that doing an annual freight spend analysis may save time and money making your organization more efficient and profitable.
To start this process, the shipper needs to provide a Request For Pricing (RFQ) with a history of 1 year, minimum 3 months of LTL shipments. Upon receiving the RFQ, our team will determine the cost factors to build into the negotiations.
