Freight Brokerage Services

Freight brokerages connect shippers who need to move freight with qualified carriers who have available capacity. As a trusted supply chain 3PL, NXTPoint Logistics serves as a trusted intermediary (or freight broker) by negotiating rates, coordinating shipments and ensuring that every load moves safely, on time and on budget. Our focus on custom-tailored solutions means that we go beyond matching shippers with carriers by building logistics strategies that align with each customer’s goals, service requirements and customer expectations.

While many freight brokers provide standardized transportation management or out-of-the-box solutions, NXTPoint’s services are custom built to create optimal flexibility for every client. We combine the efficiency of modern technology with the personalized service and attention of a boutique firm. Instead of offering a “one size fits all” solution, we design each solution based on the individual client’s network, needs, goals and priorities. Whether you need spot quotes for a specific lane or full network optimization, we create a solution that is designed to fit your individual needs.

NXTPoint manages freight of all kinds across multiple modes for domestic or international shipping, including:

• Full truckload (FTL), including dry van, refrigerated (reefer) and flatbed shipments
• Less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments, with regional and national coverage
• Intermodal and rail for cost-effective solutions
• Expedited for time-sensitive shipments
• Specialized for big, bulky and project-specific cargo

NXTPoint works with a diversified, vetted and trusted carrier network, allowing us to handle everything from high-volume consumer goods to temperature-controlled pharmaceuticals and industrial equipment.

With more than a century of experience, the NXTPoint team understands the nuances of working with clients across diverse industries and partners closely with them to design flexible, scalable solutions to support their businesses as they evolve and grow.

At NXTPoint, we understand that the quality of your carriers can make or break your business. We undergo an extensive vetting process to ensure reliability and safety of the carriers we include in our network. This helps us mitigate risk, protect the reputation of NXTPoint and our customers, and keep our partners happy.

NXTPoint Logistics utilizes advanced technology to ensure visibility throughout the life cycle of every shipment. Using transportation management system (TMS) and warehouse management system (WMS) technology, we provide customers with visibility into inventory levels, pick-up, transit, delivery progress and more.

NXTPoint takes a People Powered. Customer Driven approach to designing our solutions. When a customer comes to us, the first step we take is to listen to their needs, challenges and goals. We know that no two customers are the same, so generic logistics packages will not meet their needs. Once we understand your business objectives, we design solutions based on your goals, whether it means creating a dedicated pool of carriers, implementing flexible routing guides, utilizing multimodal shipping options for cost efficiency or building dashboards that manage the KPIs that are most important to your business.

NXTPoint leans on our 100+ years of experience, deep market intelligence, strong carrier relationships and advanced pricing tools to secure competitive rates for our customers. We constantly monitor trends like fuel costs, capacity shifts and seasonal patterns to make sure we are getting the best rates possible. For contract freight, that means rate stability and long-term cost control. For spot loads, we deliver the best pricing based on the market. Most importantly, NXTPoint works to provide the best rate available for the service our clients need.

NXTPoint provides a dedicated service team for every customer, and we work from the beginning to make sure we understand your business and the level of visibility and service you require. Our team is available to provide around-the-clock support for even the most time-sensitive or complex projects. This creates partnerships that are built on transparency and trust. Our customers never have to reach out to a generic call center. Instead, you can have confidence knowing that your account team knows your business inside and out.

NXTPoint can expertly address the needs of businesses of every size and scale. Whether you are a small, domestic business looking to grow your footprint or an established, global organization, we have the expertise and value-added services needed to meet your unique requirements.
