Finding opportunities for smarter LTL shipping
When you need to move large volumes of freight regionally, traditional LTL shipping may not always be the most cost-effective or reliable option. Pool distribution consolidates multiple shipments into a single truckload for overall faster transit times, reduced costs, and minimized risks.
For over 10 years, we’ve provided the analysis and tailored recommendations for ideal transportation solutions, helping businesses achieve cost-savings and better performance.
What is Pool Distribution?
Pool distribution is a strategic method designed for higher volume freight movements. Unlike LTL, which involves sharing loads with other companies, pool distribution combines only your shipments on the same truck and then is dropped to a regional provider for distribution.
Pool distribution can help you achieve:
Cost Efficiency
The consolidation of multiple shipments into a single truckload often helps reduce overall shipping costs.
Faster Transit
Fewer handling points and direct routes ensure your freight reaches its destination more quickly and reliably.
Reduced Risk of Damages
With your freight handled as a single unit, the risk of damages associated with multi-terminal handling in LTL networks is significantly reduced.
Who Benefits from Pool Distribution?
Pool distribution is ideal for shippers who:
- Regularly send high volumes of freight to regional locations.
- Want to reduce costs without sacrificing speed or reliability.
- Need to minimize handling and reduce the risk of freight damage.
