What details do you require from me?
Giving us as much information as possible is always a good idea. In an ideal world, we'd like to know: Collection and delivery locations, as well as the nature of the items and any loading requirements. Knowing the dimensions and weight of the items is one of the most crucial things to know. This enables us to evaluate which truck is appropriate for your load, which in turn determines the job's cost. For further details, contact us.
What kind of transportation services do you provide?
Forward trans Inc. can provide full truckload and LTL transportation, as well as rail, intermodal, air freight, and other freight solutions. Most types of parcels, parts, components, and shipments, including hazardous, non-hazardous, and oversized shipments, can be handled by us.
Our Company has one goal: to provide our customers with the most cost-effective and time-efficient shipping solutions.
What are FTL and LTL services?
FTL (Full Truckload) is the abbreviation for "full truckload." Full Truckload refers to a consignment that weighs more than 10,000 pounds or fills a complete truck. One of the most important characteristics of an FTL service is that it will transport your consignment over a long distance without moving the cargo.
LTL is the abbreviation for "less than truckload." You have an LTL cargo if you have 200 pounds of freight to carry. The cargo is safely integrated with other shipments that may be picked up and dispersed in the same region, and it only takes a piece of the truck.
What are your processes in case, if any vehicle breaks down?
In the event of a service issue, Forward trans Inc. has backup vehicles and drivers available at all times.
What happens if the weight or freight classification is incorrect?
If you undervalue the weight of your package and receive an inaccurate quote, the carrier will reclassify the freight and change the price to reflect the true weight. This is a typical event that normally does not cause any issues. However, if the cargo's weight is close to the vehicle's weight limit, this can be a problem. When deciding the freight categorization, try to be as precise as possible.
