The Challenge of Freight Costs on Large Orders
For businesses placing large, regular inventory orders, freight expenses can quickly become one of the most significant operational costs. Traditional per-shipment pricing often fails to account for the economies of scale that should benefit bulk purchasers, leading to unnecessarily high logistics spending that directly impacts your bottom line.
Strategy 1: Master Weight-Based Pricing with Your Spreadsheet
Visibility is the first step toward control. Most carriers use intricate weight-based pricing tiers. A small reduction in shipment weight can sometimes push you into a lower, more affordable pricing bracket.
Action Plan:
- Create a Tracking Model:gross weight, dimensional weight (DIM),billable weight
