When shopping for a logistics provider let LS educate your staff in industry jargon and standard milestones of project completion. We will explain how you must ask for cost quotes and what should be included in the service. Or we'll just shop for you and list the best providers available to you for your dollar.
Not sure if all those excuses your logistics provider has provided you regarding delay are actual? There are many legitimate delays possible during transit time between each milestone. Multiple delays can and do occur. If you ship with a deadline KNOW WHAT DELAYS are normal before you ship. Let LS educate you as to what is a realistic time line within your transport lane.
