Shipper — Best Practices
Securing reliable and economical freight can be a challenge, so it’s important for shippers to make their freight as attractive as possible.
When there’s a national or regional shortage, it can put shippers in an even bigger bind to ensure their loads get from point A to B. When carriers have several options for loads out of a given location, it’s important for shippers to make their freight as attractive as possible to increase acceptance rates.
Freight can be assessed on two fronts: its driver friendliness and its supply chain efficiency. These two important characteristics impact how carriers and owner-operators view and ultimately select your freight.
When there are limited transportation resources available and getting your load covered is critical, it’s important for shippers to assess their supply chain for carrier attractiveness. For more ways to maximize your load acceptance, email solutions@schneider.com.
