7 ways you can work with your carrier to save on your next LTL shipment.
1. Look to reduced service options. Does your consignee need a set appointment or can you give a 3 hour window for delivery? Extra services and coordination to set these up will increase costs. Understanding your carrier’s accessorial shipping rates can help you make the most of your transportation budget.
Are you shipping goods with an LTL freight company? Properly preparing and labeling your shipment will help your freight get where it’s going in a timely manner, without being damaged.
For effective packaging and labeling, we recommend following these tips:
