To Ship Freight or Not to Ship Freight…

From the CoValence Shipping Department:

UPS or Fed Ex? Freight or small pack? My carrier or yours? Guaranteed or standard? These days everyone has questions when it comes to shipping freight. We all know cost is the biggest question of all. With so many different carriers out there how do you know you’re getting a good deal. Well it seems to be getting easier. There are more and more brokers out there and they take more than a handful of companies and combine the volume for them all to get big discounts. CoValence has been using a broker for a while now, when we need a quote we receive several different carriers, prices and lead times. Bottom line they help answer your questions for you. All the options are there for you- If you need your products sent to a trade show, an exact time delivery, next day or simply are trying to make sure you aren’t paying too much. Not to say your carrier doesn’t have these options but with a broker they can find the right company for each shipment. Here at CoValence we are always going to try and find you the right service for the best price.

Thinking of going international? CoValence has been exporting goods all over the world for years now. Our shipping team can help you find the best prices and lead times with international as well. Shipping international isn’t much different from domestic, a little more paperwork and another day or two in transit. If that is the down side, think of the upside – with so many countries to market your products to you have the potential to make you business grow faster than you could imagine.
