As everyone associated with the logistics supply chain is fully aware, the only constant in our industry is change. The recent pandemic sent shockwaves throughout the entire industry, not just here in the States, but globally. First, raw materials and manufacturing were impacted, and by the end of the pandemic, throughout the entire supply channel as consumers’ expectations were heightened to expect almost immediate delivery after their online order was placed. For warehouse managers and others who are still relying on existing in-house staffers or unskilled day-laborers to fill the freight unloading void, we want to make you aware that this stop-gap measure is only increasing your overhead. In fact, what was once a viable solution is actually a deficit that can be chipping away at your profits by adding to your operating costs. It is time for you to consider another solution: Express Freight Handlers. We supply freight unloading services performed by professionals who are deployed as needed, and leave when you’ve signed off on our work.
You would not be alone in outsourcing your freight unloading tasks. In fact, over 80% of all Fortune 500 companies and 96% of Fortune 100 firms now use third party logistics to tackle this key step in your distribution network. There are numerous benefits to this option, and here we’ll cover those that are likely the most applicable to your business:
Productivity Increases:
By utilizing a professional freight unloading service, you will save both time and increase productivity of your valuable resources and existing workforce. By not diverting these resources, you not only keep your work schedules on track, but also entrust unloading cargo to experienced professionals who know how to work quickly and efficiently to meet your distribution schedule.
Decreased Likelihood of Damaged or Lost Freight:
Experience matters whatever the industry or task. Outsourcing your freight unloading jobs to seasoned lumpers from Express Freight Handlers ensures that every cargo will be handled correctly, minimizing the risk of damages/asset losses. In the event that we discover damaged goods due to load shift in transit, our team can separate and document losses for insurance purposes without bringing your schedule to a standstill.
As a warehouse manager or distribution channel CEO, you will likely be interested in following the lead of major corporations who have resolved their supply chain issues by teaming with Express Freight Handlers for their freight unloading jobs. Whatever the timeline, whatever the load, our experienced lumpers are ready to go whenever and wherever they are needed. Best of all, when the job is finished and approved, we leave until our freight unloading services are required again. Additionally, our teams are supervised, and we will also provide a customized report upon request.
