Solutions  /  Reduce Shipping Costs
By goal

Reduce your parcel shipping costs.

Attack rates, surcharges, and unfiled claims at the same time.

Most shippers chase one lever at a time. Real savings come from working three together: the rates in your contract, the surcharges on every invoice, and the claims you never filed. We run all three off your data.

Why shippers overpay

Parcel cost hides in three places, and fixing only one leaves most of the savings behind.

Above-market rates

Carrier agreements have hundreds of negotiable terms. Most shippers never optimize more than a few.

Surcharge leakage

Accessorials, DIM, and handling fees are easy to misapply and rarely audited line by line.

Money left unrecovered

Late deliveries, lost packages, and damage are all refundable or claimable, if you file in time.

Frequently asked

How much can we actually save?

It varies by your rates, surcharge exposure, and unfiled claims. Our free analysis quantifies all three against your own data before you commit to anything.

Do we have to switch carriers?

No. Most savings come from your existing carriers through better rates, audited surcharges, and recovered claims. We only recommend switching when the data clearly supports it.
