In today’s ever changing economy adaptability and evolving is more important than ever. With the uncertainty of fuel prices and continued global recession it’s important to be able to save money where ever possible. Although there is no one answer to solve all your companies problems shipping via the railroad or Intermodal can be a very cost effective solution to help save money. Combining the fuel efficiency of shipping Intermodal with Logistick’s new AAR Certified Super Wedge for blocking and bracing to cut claims and damages on shipped goods this will drastical cut costs in many situations. While shipping Intermodal is not always the best way to move your companies freight, with rising costs of fuel it’s definitely worth looking into as many railroads are following the same trends as trucking companies and offering rate reductions.

The Cost of Damaged Freight- Logistick Saves You Money
Thursday, April 23rd, 2009Arriving to your customer with a load full of damaged freight can be costly. When freight is dented, broken, 
or scratched in any manner the load could be refused. Refused loads will often result in unhappy partners, a loss of pay, and even the loss of a valued customer.
In most cases, damaged freight is not the driver’s responsibility. Freight is going to try to shift during transit. The vibration inside the trailer causes loads to walk, which can simply cause your freight to collapse and fall. Regardless of the reasons why your load arrived in poor condition, your customer will likely hold you responsible for any and all damaged merchandise. The good news is that this damage is preventable. The use of the right freight securement products are the answer.
