Freight Clearing and Forwarding.

We organize shipments for individuals or other companies as an agent. As a third-party (non-asset-based) logistics provider we dispatch shipments via asset-based carriers and book or otherwise arrange space for these shipments.

Port Sevices and Logistics Management.

We use cost-saving methods is facilitating pickups or deliveries at the carrier's terminals. By doing this, we avoid any accessorial fees that might normally be charged for liftgate, pickup and delivery, or notifications and appointments.

Optimize Shipping Services and Costs.

Shipper may realize savings by utilizing our freight brokerage, online marketplace or other intermediary services, instead of contracting directly with a trucking company. We analyze the marketplace and obtain lower rates than most smaller shippers can obtain directly.

Shipping experts optimize their service and costs by sampling rates from several carriers, brokers and online marketplaces. When obtaining rates from different providers, shippers may find quite a wide range in the pricing offered. In the LTL marketplace, intermediaries typically receive 50% to 80% discounts from published rates, where a small shipper may only be offered a 5% to 30% discount by the carrier.
