Hello IT in a small company here The transport guy has received an email from "updates@message․fedexfreight․com" and fwd to me for verification the email explains how the LTL business is now separated etc. the email looks legit and the links points to [fedex.com](http://fedex.com) is it legit ? https://preview.redd.it/oezkxrh4v5vg1.png?width=475&format=png&auto=webp&s=cf74d630b91a1a49d1ad080e2e317edc5736f58c https://preview.redd.it/o93a40suv5vg1.png?width=454&format=png&auto=webp&s=b676e7fef35789bc7f3bcdef61b4a7d168471db9

Expanding your DTC business into Canada with bulky items is a major growth opportunity, but the "DDU" (Delivered Duty Unpaid) model where the customer is the Importer of Record, is a notorious conversion killer. When customers face surprise storage fees, brokerage charges, and provincial taxes at the door, it leads to refused deliveries and high return costs. Transitioning to a Non-Resident Importer (NRI) model allows you to act as the "local" seller, clearing customs in bulk and delivering a seamless experience. **1. What is the** ["Non-Resident Importer" (NRI) program,](https://www.trade.gov/canada-non-resident-importer-program) **and why do I need it?** ...

I'm trying to solve a 3PL problem that standard fulfillment providers just aren't built for. Our product ships in wooden crates that are roughly more than 16ft long and 200–400 lbs each. Standard 3PLs are a non-starter — we need floor stacking, forklift handling, and LTL outbound per individual order. We're based in SoCal and import from overseas via the Port of LA/Long Beach, so proximity to the port is a plus. Has anyone worked with any of these — or know of others that actually handle this type of oversized crated freight well? Any experience or recommendations appreciated. Happy to share what I find for others in a similar boat.

Long time lurker first time poster yada yada. I'm here to talk about FWRD, a company I've been trading for the last few years and just bought shares / calls in. **Background:** Legacy Forward Air is an LTL (less-than truckload) carrier that has historically owned the airport-to-airport trucking market with \~7% share of the "expedited" LTL market. Their customers are freight forwarders (i.e. moving cargo from Asia to the US) who pay FWRD to move the freight from airport to DCs before ultimately moving to its end destination. Prior to 2023, FWRD consistently had best in class margins / operating metrics and traded at the high-end range of EBITDA multiples vs LTL comps (...

Hello! I've been working in HR since college and my recent HRBP role was eliminated, which ***** since it was only about 5ish months. I've updated my resume but my big concern is the most recent role. I'm planning on targeting generalist/specialist roles since most of my experience is there but I don't want my prior role to make it seem like I'm waiting for the next senior position. I've mainly had contract roles and was at a prior role fulltime for over 2 years. I technically have more experience from 2020 but it was a role I took on for a year before needing to move and not able to commute to that location anymore. Don't want it to seem like I'm jo...

I’m a broker who does a lot of LTL and these are a few things I’ve noticed. If I put my own phone number they don’t show up for pick up for so many days that I have to cancel. If I put my number on the receivers end they will google the address find the phone number of the business located there and call them directly. And if the most recent thing that happen is a brought my customers freight to my cross dock to send it as a partial I had 2 deliveries on this piece but my other piece got canceled so I just used the LTL carrier I always use for these particular loads but I did 2 different shipments. They picked up the first one and they haven’t picked up the other since Wednesday....

I’ve been digging into freight costs lately and realized a lot of businesses pick the wrong mode between LTL and FTL. In some cases, people are paying for full trucks when LTL would cost way less. In others, they’re forcing bigger loads into LTL and getting hit with delays, reclass fees, or damage issues. I broke down a detailed comparison with real scenarios (cost, transit time, when each makes sense). Sharing here in case it helps anyone Curious how you guys decide, do you go purely by cost or factor in transit time and handling risk too?

Need advice on LTL shipment (CA → TX) Hey guys, I’m moving a shipment and wanted some advice from people with experience. Details: \- Chino, CA → Houston, TX (77433) \- \~6,400 lbs \- 20 pallets (48x40x70) \- Non-hazmat I’ve gotten some quotes already but want to make sure I’m going the right route. Would you recommend going direct with carriers like TForce/FedEx Freight, or using a broker for something like this? Also, what would be a reasonable price range and transit time for this lane? Appreciate any guidance 🙏

# Most people don’t even realize this is an option… Instead of renting a truck and driving it yourself, companies like ABF Freight, Old Dominion Freight Line, and Estes Express Lines will drop off a **semi-trailer**, let you load it (or hire movers), and then charge you **only for the space you use**. Sounds like a cheat code, right? It kind of is—but only if you know what you’re doing. Here’s what most people don’t tell you: * You get **WAY more space** than a standard rental truck (especially height-wise… this matters more than you think) * Delivery windows can be **unpredictable** (sometimes hours late… sometimes worse) * You’re 100% responsible for **how well your l...
