\nThat\u2019s precisely why reduced freight costs should also be a top priority offered when selecting a fulfillment service company. <\/b>Finding a fulfillment partner<\/a><\/span> with exceptional negotiated national contracts with major carriers, and who can provide lower cost packages and bulk freight services for your domestic and international shipments is key.\u00a0 A company with large annual package volume can offer substantial discounts off book rates; and are able to pass along significant discounts to their customers.\u00a0 These discounts meet or exceed any pricing that customers might receive independently.<\/p>\n

You should expect to receive exact freight costing and a traceable way for reconciliation since the freight cost is attached to each shipment. In addition, the administration burden and cost of reconciling a carrier\u2019s weekly bill should be gone forever. With a fulfillment partner who maintains volume agreements with multiple carriers you are protected from any unexpected interruptions in service from a single carrier.<\/p>\n
