SHIPPING SINCE 2009

SUPPLY CHAIN

Contract Rates vs Spot Rates

01

 

If you have consistent shipments on consistent lanes (including peak season demands), it’s normally better to use contract rates. With this type of rate, you’re locked in — securing the capacity you need with consistent pricing.   

  

If you’re moving a low number of shipments, have inconsistent loads and lanes, or have a one-time need (e.g., during emergencies), it may make more sense to use spot rates. With this type of rate, you can easily overcome any disruptions in your supply chain by immediately filling gaps to get your freight moving.

Alternative Capacity Options

02

 

Cornell Express Trucking offers flexible capacity options such as LTL & FTL. The biggest difference between LTL and FTL is that LTL gives you higher cost savings when you ship only a few pallets at a time. This is cheaper for you because you are only paying for the space you are using, rather than paying for a full truck that isn’t filled to capacity. 

Expedited 

Shipping

03

 

When an interruption in your supply chain calls for immediate action, or standard delivery times just won’t cut it, choose expedite to get freight delivered fast. Use it day or night to solve your time-sensitive logistics challenges and keep your supply chain running smoothly.
