Every shipment is different. The right transportation solution depends on what you are moving, how much of it there is, where it needs to go, and how quickly it needs to get there.
Start With the Freight
Begin by describing the freight itself: its dimensions, weight, packaging and any special handling it needs. These details shape which equipment and service types are a practical fit.
Details that help narrow the options:
- Total weight and number of pallets or pieces
- Whether the freight is temperature-sensitive
- Oversized or irregularly shaped items
- Any hazardous materials requirements
Consider Timing and Delivery Requirements
Pickup windows, delivery appointments and how flexible your schedule is all influence the solution. Time-critical freight may call for dedicated or expedited service, while flexible schedules can open up more cost-effective options.
Match the Equipment to the Load
- Dry van for enclosed, general freight
- Reefer for temperature-controlled freight
- Flatbed for oversized or heavy equipment
- Expedited for time-critical shipments
