How to avoid empty kilometers with Grand Logistiks

How to avoid empty kilometers with Grand Logistiks

The shortage of truck drivers, and hence the lack of larger vacancies, is a fact and a leading factor that negatively affects the supply chain. Perhaps again, one of the best solutions remains groupage transport (LTL). But there are always empty kilometers.
Empty kilometers are at the top of the list of carriers' annoyances. A full truck is profitable, but when the truck is not full, it does not generate carcass revenue and expenses. How to make good use of a course - for example in partnership with a good forwarder.
Experienced freight forwarders know exactly how to avoid the empty kilometers of their partner carrier and increase the filling of the truck's capacity so that one course in both directions is sufficiently profitable. The main things we apply in our work are proactivity, organization and planning.
Proactivity - We do not rely only on goods for which we are sought, we work with many manufacturers and traders, with whom we plan the transport of their goods. In addition, we work in a network with many fellow freight forwarders and even at the moment we personally can not use the transport capacity, we always try to organize and reverse loading before leaving our partner driver - happy carrier, happy customer, job well done!
Some delays are simply inevitable - bad weather, unexpected traffic stops, mechanical problems of the vehicle and more. are usually beyond our control and that of the driver. But we try to organize deliveries, especially in groupage cars, so that everything arrives on time - how? We study and plan routes carefully, including detours. There are many routes that are common, but there are also routes that are not so common and the lack of freight transport for them is palpable. We can always react and agree with the carrier to change the route, and with small deviations from the original route to fill the capacity of the truck.
You are a carrier, you have a truck on which you want to optimize the empty kilometers and generate additional income ?! Become our partner!
We are not market leaders in whole or groupage loads, but we work well enough and can provide extra employment for your courses. See more here >>>
