Consolidation

The basics of Consolidation are simple.

  • Transit Time -  Many Customers may have reservations with the word "consolidation" because they may believe the service expectations may be put in jeopardy.  The customer dictates our deliveries. We always ask when the delivery needs to be made and let them know if we can accomplish the deadline.
  • Many Opportunities for Consolidation - Some believe that when they have 25,000 or more they must send it as a full truckload.  We work to fill that unused capacity and can dramatically reduce the customers cost.  This is the niche between LTL and truckload that we specialize in and has a great impact on the bottom line.
  • Freight is handled less - This reduces the damage since the freight, once picked up, is placed on the linehaul truck for final destination.
  • Pricing - We have a rate base that customers can utilize, giving them a benchmark to go by.  Depending on the destination, adjustments can be made.
  • Space Solutions - There may be cases where freight is manufactured ahead of schedule and the customer may not have room to store it for a few days.  We will not charge for storage in cases where the freight sits for less than a week.
  • Tracking - The customer can receive a daily e-mail with the delivery status. 

It does not matter if you have one shipment a day, week, or month, Cavalry Xpress can make your shipping more competitive. We combine each shipment with other shipments bound for destinations that are in close proximity.   The freight is then loaded on a linehaul trailer and delivered to the appropriate area.  We are able to create efficiencies of scale for each customer as we deliver shipments directly to their assembly plant or warehouse.  We offer:

  • Service on Demand -- Simple service ready when you are.
  • Strong Alliances -- Our buying power = great rates for you.
  • Quick Response -- We can provide transit times and service area options in seconds.
  • Choice -- We provide LTL quotes from multiple LTL carriers immediately.
  • Rate Consistency -- Keep rates consistent for your sales team when using freight rates in their quotes.
  • Quick Booking -- Instantly book the shipment when you determine you have the best match.
  • Experienced Service -- You’re never alone with our live, experienced support team CREATING CAPACITYSM for you!
