Distribution patterns are shifting to smaller,
more frequent shipments. We utilize a large contract
network of proven regional and long haul LTL common
carriers. In 2000, we also acquired a refrigerated
LTL third party provider to serve the growing demand
for temperature
protected LTL service. When pooling shipments
makes sense, we call upon one of our 35,000+
truckload contract
carriers.
Our real-time, online systems deliver complete
supply chain visibility. Shippers can obtain instant
rate quotes without having to negotiate rates
with several LTL carriers. They can place orders,
create bills of lading, receive automatic notification
of deviations from scheduled activities, and track
and trace their freight. They can also prepare
customized reports that detail their LTL business.
Daily or weekly, our customers receive a consolidated,
audited bill, eliminating the influx of individual
freight bills from multiple carriers.
