Freight Transportation
Home - Freight Transportation
Freight shipping or freight transport is the coordinated movement of goods in bulk from one location to another, whether it’s across the street or across continents. But don’t let the simplicity of that definition deceive you.
The mechanics of this undertaking involve a complex orchestration of storage, scheduling, and the right equipment, products, and personnel coordinating toward one goal—getting things from one place to another as efficiently and safely (supposedly) as possible.
