Commonly known as a 3PL, a third-party logistics company can provide a wide range of custom logistics solutions. Utilizing a blended model of owned assets with a vast network of specialized, dedicated, and highly vetted providers, a trustworthy 3PL can handle a variety of transportation modes and services. These include OTR, FTL, LTL, dry van, and temperature controlled, over dimensional, intermodal, and air.
By building a vast network of providers, a reputable 3PL is always ready at a moment’s notice to solve the most urgent and unique challenge. Good 3PLs are operationally equipped to handle emergencies like bad weather, breakdowns, added loads, or the need for additional drivers. A 3PL is an excellent resource for last-minute changes and can provide options for tough-to-cover loads when no one else can.
When researching potential 3PLs, it helps to determine what considerations are most important to your business. Some things to consider are geography (both location of the 3PL and their service area), industry expertise (including any relevant specialties), range of solutions, carrier vetting process, amount of accessibility (around the clock versus automated updates), level of visibility, and use of technology.
