SC Digital Masters — LTL Shipping Rates - Control Costs with a Different Approach

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.
