How We Optimize Trailers To Save You Money
An idea turned into a reality when our founder, Craig Roeder, discovered a way to help companies by taking partial truckloads of manufacturer's raw materials, putting them into one trailer, and only charging the customer for their portion of the linehaul. This revolutionary idea set the stage for a consolidation network that has no rival.
1: Before Optmization
Before optimization occurs you are left shipping multiple LTL shipments long distances. You have to compete for the best rates and are overall paying too much money for what you need to do.
2: Optimization (Tetris Modeling)
Optimization tools, such as logistics posts, allow ProTrans to fully utilize trailer capacity. Fully utilized loads lowers the cost of the shared network per customer.
3: Optmization Result
Optimizing your shipments utilizes less trucks (less CO2 emissions), significantly decreases damages, and SAVES YOU MONEY! The amazing thing about optimization is, you may be paying a higher rate for this one truck below, but overall, you are saving $1,650 on that entire shipment.
