Five Reasons Why You Should Outsource Your Distribution Logistics

Have you ever considered all of the elements that go into an efficient, well-run product distribution operation? 

Beyond the manpower and warehouse space, there are a ton of resources that go into the logistics that support your operations. Load tracking and tracing technology. Remote monitoring software. Logistics specialists. On-call support. Operations managers. Vehicle inspection. Insurance and quality assurance specialists. All these and more are common to shipping logistics for medium- to large-sized companies, and they can be a massive headache and financial investment to keep in-house. 

 Instead of going through all the trouble of recruiting and retaining all the talent for a shipping logistics department, which your human resources managers may not know how to hire for, why not outsource your shipping logistics to an expert freight broker? 

At LHP Transportation, we work with clients of all sizes around the United States to streamline their product distribution and manage their logistics to ensure them smooth, cost-efficient product distribution. We’ve built our brand over the last two decades with cutting-edge technology and attentive customer service to become one of the leading names in freight transportation. Call us today to get a freight quote, and read on to learn more about how outsourcing your distribution logistics to a freight broker can benefit your business. 

 

Save Time And Money

By outsourcing your shipping logistics to LHP Transportation, you’re saving your company the time and expense of recruiting and building out your own logistics department — and the savings are significant. On top of the time your hiring managers won’t have to waste on recruiting talent, you also won’t have to pay salary, payroll taxes, benefits, or find office space for new staff. Instead, you’ll be enjoying the service of our talented, capable shipping agents — tested and proven shipping logistics experts. No additional hiring, no additional expenses, no time necessary to train and develop — no hassle!

 

Enjoy Increased Stability

Choosing the LHP Transportation shipping logistics team saves you money from the get-go, and over time. Instead of assuming the risk of maintaining your own logistics department over time, working to  remain competitive to retain top talent and limit turnover, you can enjoy top-quality support from our team and let us deal with the minutiae of maintaining our team. We didn’t get to be one of the biggest names in freight transportation for no reason — we earned our reputation through dedicated service and have become one of the top destinations for veteran freight broker agents.

Enjoy Unfettered Access  

Best of all, when you outsource your distribution to LHP Transportation, you’ll gain unfettered access to your logistics support team.
