Why Shared Truckloads Are Easing Freight Headaches

The tough times in freight shipping are finally over. But don't celebrate just yet! As the market changes, costs are on the rise. Companies need to get smart about their shipping strategies to stay ahead. For mid-size and big companies, adding a Shared Truckload plan to their 2025 goals could be a game-changer. This is what Pat Dillon, CFO & COO of Flock Freight, says. Their Shared Truckload model squeezes more value out of trucks that are only half full. This means savings for shippers and extra bucks for truckers. Flock Freight uses special technology to fill up empty spaces in trucks. Shippers only pay for the space they use, and drivers earn more. This also keeps shipments safer and on time. Over the past year, Flock Freight partnered with lots of new companies. These businesses wanted to make their supply chains better and find savings. For example, Season Products cut their shipping costs by 30% by using Flock Freight’s service.

Flock Freight also understands the needs of big retailers. So, they’re the go-to for big companies shipping to these stores. Plus, they help with returns, which are happening more often now. For companies with lots of shipments to one place, Flock can find even more savings by pooling shipments. Olipop, a fast-growing beverage company, used Flock and saved money and improved delivery times. Flock Freight also makes it easier for truckers to haul shared loads, helping them earn more and build a reliable network for customers. This makes finding affordable, dependable shipping easier, even as costs go up. But Flock Freight isn’t just about saving money. They focus on great service too, making it less stressful for shippers to try new things. Reborn Cabinets’ purchasing manager, Jesse Sanchez-Mendoza, agrees that working with Flock makes shipping easier. With new tech and customers on board in 2024, Flock Freight is showing how valuable a partner they can be in a changing market.
