Speed, accuracy and security are important for every shipment – from paper towels to fancy electronics. There are a handful of segments, however, in which the importance of these elements becomes amplified. Both manufacturers and their transportation partners must be more diligent when dealing with high-value shipments that require special packaging and come with specific handling instructions – namely, medical equipment and certain types of computer equipment.
Companies should place a strong emphasis on choosing the best transportation partner possible when dealing with fragile products that require expert handling to ensure a damage-free delivery. In addition to a strong track record of safe deliveries, the right transportation company will also be adaptable and provide top-notch flexibility by offering both full truckload direct shipments and a national LTL network.
