Why Use A Logistics Provider For Trucking, Road Freight And Drayage Services?
As a logistics provider, we classify this service as a whole, but understand that each has a unique life of its own. At LA 24-7 Forwarder, we can handle everything from a few packages to a full truckload. Our connection with transport companies mean we have many fleets at our disposal. Our in-house agents love to handle the full spectrum of your shipping needs because they know the difference they are making to your company’s supply chain and bottom line are huge.
We Coordinate The Details For You
When shipping something small just once in a while, we all know general transport companies like USPS, FedEx and UPS – those who directly own the equipment – offer a good solution at affordable prices. However, when you are a company who ships more complex or more often, aligning with a third-party logistics provider such as LA 24-7 Forwarder can save you time and money. Rather than working one-on-one with several freight forwarders where you have to mentally calculate costs, travel time and coordination, give your freight shipping needs to one of our in-house agents. We can give you a freight quote right over the phone.
We Know The Industry Better
There is a lot of terminology thrown around when working with transport companies. The transportation industry as a whole can seem like dealing with a foreigner who doesn’t know how to speak English. LA 24-7 Forwarder understands not only how to plan and coordinate the logistics, but we know the language. We also understand when, for example, you’ll need LTL freight (less than truckload) or intermodal (moving cargo between multiple modes of transport) services. Or, perhaps you require direct freight (delivered straight from truck to ship without sitting in the container yard) because you are shipping hazardous materials. Whatever the case, we know the freight forwarder industry and lingo well enough to negotiate and execute your logistics needs.
We Haul Both Short And Long
Since, within even the same company, shipping needs may vary, LA 24-7 Forwarder offers services in coordinating both short distance (drayage) and long distance (road freight) freight transport. The contents of each shipment can also differ, leaving your mind in a twist over learning the ins and outs of the transportation logistics industry. We handle many types of product, from beverages to perishables to machinery. There is no limit on what we can make happen on your behalf, saving you loads of headaches and even fattening your wallet.
More often than not, the argument that a company who manages the equipment can give you better and more personalized service doesn’t hold up under the pressures you face to distribute goods, deliver parts, or move vehicles. The fact is, our in-house agents can do more for you in the long haul than working directly with freight forwarders ever can.
At LA 24-7 Forwarder, we take personalized service to heart. We treat your company like you are part of the family and always make sure you get the best price and delivery in the end. Call us today at (800) 648-9889 for your FREE Quote!
