Transportation & Freight
Simplify and save when First Logistics covers part or all of your freight moves.
Bad transportation management can mean big costs. But First Logistics’ transportation management solutions offers solutions developed through years of best-practice experience, designed to proactively catch and solve problems, reduce transit time and decrease your costs.
Recognizing that every customer has unique transportation needs, we offer a wide range of logistics and transportation services, from drayage to parcel shipping. Our warehouses are strategically located near most of the major rail ramps in Chicago, making freight shipping simple. An extensive fleet of partner carriers can handle any size of transportation job with ease, ensuring that products are delivered on time and on budget – all while making your job simpler.
We also provide cross-docking services to facilitate swift transfer of finished goods directly from manufacturers to customers or retailers with little to no handling or storage.
Simplify your shipping
Working with one third-party logistics (3PL) team for your warehousing and transportation unlocks new efficiencies. Our teams communicate seamlessly, so updates are faster and delays or changes in your shipping plans are known immediately. Stop coordinating between multiple channels; with First Logistics transportation, one call gets it done.
Kill unnecessary fees
First Logistics offers full origin-to-destination transparency, proactive shipment tracking and trained staff for special handling. If there’s ever a challenge with your shipment, we’ll know soon enough to make adjustments. That means you get a solution – not just an expense.
Our transportation team has had great success in reducing lost or late shipments for clients, saving millions every year in unnecessary fees and penalties. We’d love to do the same for you.
