Optimized Loads

One advantage of considering freight shipping for your business is that it allows you to send more products in one shipment compared to a fleet of vehicles. One way to think about it is having ten vans delivering products versus one freight truck delivering the same load in one shipment. 


Those vans are at an increased chance of shipping delays and vans breaking down. However, with one freight truck, you spend less on resources to ship those products, and a well-maintained truck can run for miles with no problems. 

Outsourcing Delivery Management

One other advantage of making the switch to freight shipping is that you can have a trusted freight company like LHP Transportation Services take care of all the coordination for you. This way, you can focus on your business and not worry about some of the headaches that can come from dealing with transportation. 

Optimized Routes

Freight companies specialize in moving cargo, so chances are they know the best routes to take to make sure products show up on time. Routes can also change, potentially causing costly delays. When you go through a freight company, they will always stay updated on the best routes to take so there are virtually no chances of delays due to road closures or wrecks. 


If you are looking to improve your shipping methods and get your products to customers faster and on time, you could greatly benefit from hiring a freight broker to help. At LHP Transportation Services, we deal with all the transportation services for you so you can focus on your business and let us deal with how it will get to the customer.
