Increase Productivity And Reduce Complexity

Working with a market leader gives you access to a purpose-built platform and support system that simplifies the complexity of Less-Than-Truckload freight. BlueShip proprietary technology allows user access at any level from self-service to ERP integrations. Gain efficiency through a customer support team who are experts in LTL and understand the most effective freight options.

Choosing an LTL Freight Partner

Seek one who specializes in Less-Than-Truckload freight processes and technology, and who has a knowledgeable team with years of experience. From there, it is important to find an easy way to get quotes, service options, settle claims, audit freight bills, and process settlements.

Shipments that are sent as LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) are weighed and measured, then fall into the NMFC (National Motor Freight Classification). This class determines the overall cost of your LTL shipment. Not sure about your class of LTL freight? Inaccurate classifications cost you money in the end. Don’t get overcharged—try this free Density Calculator to help determine your freight class.

One of the biggest pain points in LTL shipping revolves around insurance and where to get it. You can access insurance certifications directly through the BlueShip platform. Highly recommended, affordable, and provides coverage beyond standard carrier liability.

Shippers themselves are the first line of defense in protecting products from damage. Careful packaging helps protect products so they arrive at their destination intact. Damaged LTL freight results in higher costs. Thoughtful packaging reduces damage risk and exposure to higher costs.
