Freight costs can equal, or even exceed, fulfillment costs so it’s critical to have an expert in freight management on your side to help keep costs under control.
Aero’s freight management process begins with an assessment of a client’s current and anticipated shipping needs and ends with a customized freight management solution that works best for that particular client. Our customized solutions generally fall into one of two categories.
Aero Freight Strategies for Maximum Discounts
Many clients rely on us to leverage our experience and relationships with major shippers such as UPS, FedEx, DHL and the USPS, as well as leading carriers such as Yellow Freight and ABF to develop and implement a customized strategy to meet their needs. In addition to our initial assessment and plan, we constantly monitor shipping times and costs, and routinely make recommendations for improvements. We strive to achieve the perfect balance of high quality shipping at the lowest possible cost.Expert 3rd Party Account Management
Other clients already have negotiated relationships with shipping providers but look to Aero to help manage those relationships and, just as importantly, to provide detailed monthly billing reports for easy reconciliation. Again, we routinely make recommendations for improvements and cost reductions.Tools we use to ensure our clients know their freight management is in good hands include:
Customized Routing Guides Allow us to offer best rates by service level across multiple carriers, including U.S.P.S.
