Freight Forwarder in Atlanta: Effective, Cost-Efficient Solutions

To envision a freight forwarder in action, imagine a triangle. At the top are two points that can represent a manufacturer or other business that needs to ship and the final receiver of the product. The bottom point represents the forwarding agent who gets the freight where it needs to go. This generally involves shipments with large volumes within one single transport and delivery process. Because deliveries can be quite complex, the freight forwarder typically must simplify the process and consolidate the shipments.

A quality freight forwarder in Atlanta like NXTPoint accomplishes this accurately, efficiently, and cost effectively by making strategic decisions about transportation modes. These range from air freight to sea/ocean transportation to road transportation and rail freight.

To ensure optimally streamlined logistics across the supply chain, we develop and nurture strong partnerships with others in the transportation industry and negotiate the best pricing for safe, on-time deliveries.

An experienced freight forwarder in Atlanta (like NXTPoint Logistics) provides plenty of value through comprehensive transportation management services that are customized to your specific company. At NXTPoint, we’ll select the best transportation modes for your particular shipments, negotiate optimal rates, optimize routes, proactively plan backups, and offer overall streamlined logistics. So, choosing our freight forwarder in Atlanta is a smart choice for on-time deliveries that are both accurate and cost-effective.

We offer a full range of freight forwarding services, including domestic freight shipping and transport management services where we design a personalized plan for each customer. We’ll efficiently yet carefully handle and oversee the plan, keeping you fully in the loop throughout the process.

To benefit from our full menu of flexible services and our world class service, connect with our expert team for your freight forwarding services.

One key reason is our experience. We leverage more than a century of logistics with professionals having expertise across the broad range of services that we offer. Another reason is that we have the deep resources, strength, and sophistication of large third-party logistics companies with the flexible responsiveness and personal attention of a smaller one. We own and operate more than 35 assets in the country, including our 180,000-square-foot, Class A facility in Duluth, Georgia. We also have a network of more than 2,200 warehouse, transportation, and compliance professionals with innovative technology that leads the industry and allows your company to enhance performance and minimize expenses and risk.

Plus, our team of experts contribute to the communities where they live and work. For example, two of our logistics executives volunteered to revamp a tiny veterans home in Savannah, Georgia. They, along with about 300 other volunteers, painted the homes, built structures for shade, created community gathering places, and landscaped the property.
