Finding opportunities for smarter LTL shipping
Big-box retailers are known for their strict delivery requirements. Retail consolidation helps shippers combine smaller shipments into single truckloads shared with other shippers to the same location–for efficiency, reduced costs, and improved on-time and in-full (OTIF) compliance.
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 Retail Consolidation?
Retail consolidation is a strategic method for delivering to retail distribution centers. Consolidating LTL to full truckload with other vendors to the same DC helps shippers reduce their shipping costs, reliably meet Must Arrive By Dates, and avoid chargebacks.
Retail consolidation can help you achieve:
Improved OTIF Compliance
Ensure your shipments arrive on time and in full, reducing the risk of penalties and chargebacks from retailers.
Faster, More Reliable Delivery
With fewer handling points and direct routes, consolidated shipments reach their destination faster and with greater reliability.
Cost Efficiency
By consolidating multiple smaller shipments into full truckloads, you can significantly lower transportation costs compared to shipping orders individually via LTL.
Who Benefits from Retail Consolidation?
Retail consolidation is ideal for businesses that:
- Ship high volumes of freight to big-box retailers like Walmart, Target, and Amazon.
- Struggle with OTIF compliance and want to avoid chargebacks.
- Seek cost-effective solutions for managing retail supply chain complexity.
