Shippers in the less-than-load (LTL) transportation environment are experiencing historic headwinds. Businesses are bracing for how that will affect their LTL shipping rates. It appears that there’s no short-term end in sight to carrier-favorable market conditions.
Capacity sentiment is trending toward “very tight” for LTL transportation six months from now. Carriers are more disciplined and positioned to “benefit from tight capacity, lack of drivers, new market concentration and mounting COVID-related demands,” according to Logistics Management.
What are you doing to make sure your LTL freight keeps moving tomorrow?
Join our expert LTL freight panel featuring Vice President of Processing Services Jay Wilson, Vice President of Client Solutions Paul Schmitz, Partner of Enterprise Solutions Robyn Meyer and Client Solutions Director Melanie Burns. They will take you behind the LTL carrier curtain and provide guidance that will help you create multi-modal alignment and enable you to access and maintain optimal transportation pricing and service:
- Understand LTL carriers’ operational practices and proactive steps you can take to control individual shipment costs and overall transportation spend
- Determine and eliminate unnecessary internal costs during pre-execution, post-execution and post-delivery processes.
- Leverage analysis and live customer data to understand order performance, determine profitability by SKU, correct network misalignment and determine opportunities to shift into Small Parcel or Full Truckload.
Reserve your seat now and participate in the live Q&A with our LTL shipping experts. Space is limited – register today.
