We have noticed an increase regarding challenges while working with consolidator carriers.
Most of our clients are already aware of the issues with these types of carriers such as; long transit times, limited tracking capabilities and damages as the freight usually gets handled more than traditional style carriers. However because of recent capacity issues, the above challenges have increased dramatically which has frustrated many of our clients and their customers.
We recommend giving your freight extra transit time while giving more care regarding stronger packaging if you choose these more economical options.
If you have further questions, need guidance on when you should utilize these style of carriers, or just want to tell us about your weekend plans then give us a call or email us.
