Lighter days and longer evenings are a sure-fire sign that Spring is on the way. And while this might mean putting up with the unpredictable British weather, you shouldn’t have to tolerate an unpredictable logistics partner.
But, with a new season comes new beginnings, so if your current service provider just isn’t living up to your expectations anymore, it might be time for a fresh start.
To help you out, we’ve outlined some important things to look out for in your next logistics partner:
1. Coverage – Having the right support in place to get your goods where they need to go is essential for any business. It doesn’t matter if it’s heading to a farm, a factory, or a front door, our network of over 130 hauliers operates across the UK to cover every postcode—keeping your freight moving, whatever the weather.
2. Scalability – Whether you’re selling barbecues or bricks, every business has its seasonal peaks, so you deserve a logistics partner that can handle yours with ease. With our flexible contracts and adaptable solutions, you can scale your distribution up or down as required, so you receive a service that’s just right every time.
3. Reliability – Your logistics operation should run like clockwork. With our on-time, in-full delivery rates exceeding national averages in challenging delivery locations like London and Scotland, you can trust that your goods will meet their delivery deadlines—even when the clocks change.
4. Technology – With brighter days on the way, there’s nothing worse than being kept in the dark. If it feels like you’re always chasing for updates and delivery time slots, it might be time to try something new. Our freight management technology keeps you and your customers in-the-know every step of the way with tracking updates, ETAs and image capture on delivery.
