End-to-end supply chain collaboration

May 30, 2018

The importance of end-to-end supply chain collaboration has changed dramatically in the last two decades. As the expectations of both shareholders and consumers have soared, the collective brainpower, capability, technology, resources, and scale of most supply chains have become insufficient to meet them.

What is LTL Freight.

whitePaper | November 24, 2022

Sometimes you’ll have freight that is too large to send with a parcel provider, like the US Postal Service, but too small to fill a standard truck. Most often, trying to move your freight as a parcel or truckload shipment would be costly because it’s not the ideal size for those providers. This is where LTL shipping comes in! LTL is an industry acronym that stands for “less-than-truckload”. LTL refers to those shipments that are, quite literally, less than a truckload. They do not need all the space provided in a standard truck trailer because of their size and/or weight. In this case, you’ll find using an LTL carrier is more cost-effective than using a truckload carrier for your freight.
