General Questions
We can haul pretty much any freight that our equipment will legally allow us to haul safely. Talk with our shipping specialists for specifics.
Rates are based on distance, weight, length, and height, density, ease of handling, value and liability from things like theft, damage, break-ability, and spoilage. Typically the lower the NMFC class number for your shipment the lower the freight charge will be.
Less than truckload (LTL) refers to shipping goods that don’t require an entire truck. We offer dedicated line hauls for LTL or we combine shipments to give you lower rates and faster delivery times.
A full truckload (FTL) refers to shipments that need an entire truck’s capacity. We can directly transport large shipments with our FTL services if your shipment is big enough to fill a trailer.
Sourcing
While it’s often used interchangeably with the term purchasing, procurement is actually a set of controls and procedures used to obtain the best possible return on investment (ROI) when making purchases. Purchasing is itself only a part of the overall procurement process, which also includes strategic sourcing, quality control, and supplier relationship management.
