Online Freight Quote companies

The internet is changing the way we as business people do business.
Simply stated business in the 21st century is so fluid and so very dynamic as a result of the power of the internet and high speed computers. This gives consumers in every walk off life a tremendous opportunity. It is especially relevant for small and mid size business that do not have large staffs. Today a small or medium size company can find inexpensive airline tickets, cheap hotel rates, competitive freight rates and new products all at the click of a mouse. You now have the freedom to surf the web while watching TV or enjoying your favorite beverage and be productive in your spare time. This can all be done when you choose to use your computer and at your own pace.

Major companies are aware of the ever increasing use of the web and are finding ways to reduce costs, sell off excess inventory and keep there products and services in front of the consumer. One service we have found that is having a tremendous impact in our business is the use of online freight quote companies. You can find many of these companies on the web by entering freight quote in the search field on Google or Yahoo. My Freight World is one example and we have found savings of 25% to 40% for our customers. These savings are typical for shipments that exceed 200 hundred pounds. These freight brokers have large discounts with a great deal of trucking companies and each trucking company must compete to get the business.

You can use this knowledge to save money on our web site. When you are ready to complete and order on our web site go to the Delivery Options page and set the carrier to UPS. You can view the order details by clicking on the Show Details link. This will give you the weight and the number of cases for the shipment. In a separate browser open up your favorite online broker and get a freight quote. You will need the zip code for the origin and the destination. You can find our zip codes on the home page for each of our three distribution centers. If you find a quote that is less expensive, change the carrier on the Delivery Options Page to read customer provided carrier and enter the carrier in the comment field on the Order Summary Page. We will use this method and you will be shipped collect using your broker or trucking company.
We have several words of advice. You will need to sign up with one of these companies and be prepared to have the actual costs for the freight come in slightly higher than the original quote. When I started this comment you will recall my statement about business being fluid and therefore the trucking companies often increase the rate from the original amount for a variety of reasons. The change in fuel being the number one reason. The rule is always buyer beware but we have had great success with this method.
