The successful transportation of any types of goods, especially cross-border goods, is very much dependent on the proper choice of trucking companies.  Price of transportation is always a consideration for businesses that use trucking companies for transportation of goods, but it is not the only consideration.  Many components come into play when businesses seek out these types of transportation services.

Especially in cross-border transport of goods, an understanding of logistics is imperative. 

One company that is becoming known for its in-depth understanding of the logistics involved in cross-border and other goods transports, is RoadLINX, Inc. of Woodbridge, Ontario.   This company is a proponent of a logistical approach to any type of transporting of any type of freight.  Without great logistical knowledge by a company, too many unknown and unforeseen circumstances can occur, especially in the field of cross-border freight transport.  All types of vehicles must be on hand, as well as the ability to store freight safely and securely in case there are any delays that occur during the transport.  Storage trailers should be available, as well as warehousing capabilities, and cross-docking services. 

Safe and secure transport of goods requires many types of trucks, trailers, vans and storage.

Since transportation of goods can involve perishables, Reefer trucks and heated trucks should be on hand by any trucking company.  A Reefer truck is simply a refrigerated unit that uses liquid carbon monoxide (CO) for cooling.  Heated trucks and trailers are used whenever a transport requires a specific temperature-controlled environment within a trailer, truck or van during a transport.  Using heated transportation of liquids that can freeze under certain temperatures is imperative for the successful transport of these types of liquids.  Since temperatures can vary especially in cross-border transports, maintenance of temperature is imperative, as prevention of cool down, or freeze up is important. 

Freight transport many times can be intermodal in nature.

Businesses seeking intermodal freight transport have many requirements.  Intermodal freight generally involves either port to railway, then railway to roadway, or even air to shipyard to railway and then roadway.  Again, it’s a complex process that takes logistical knowledge and skill, and the capacity for storage along each passageway in the case of delays or unforeseen circumstances.  The immediate availability of heated and cooled storage trailers and cross-docking capabilities does play a large part in a businesses decision on which trucking companies to use.  The warehousing and cross-docking must be as good as the trailers, vans, and trucks used.  Being able to store and use cross-docking prevents lost time in over handling and does save time and money for any business that uses a trucking company with these capabilities.

Overall, in freight shipping of any type, knowledge and experience, combined with equipment counts.

The choice of trucking companies is something that should be researched thoroughly before attempting transportation of any types of goods.  The loss of any types of goods is costly and decisions on choice of companies to do transports should always require due diligence on the part of any business.  Price is not the only parameter.  However, cost-effective companies with the right capabilities, like RoadLINX, Inc. do exist and getting quotes and discussing needed services should be done by any business before proceeding with transports.
