what do we do and what makes us so good at it?

It's all about our team of seasoned transportation professionals! 

  • We are not a Transportation Service Provider, therefore have no bias when recommending solutions.
  • GoFreight prides itself on the highest level of confidentiality. We understand that you may not want anyone to know that you had "help". We will never disclose the identities of our clients or the nature of the work performed to third parties without your consent.
  • Our team has been in your shoes, and has worked for different Transportation Service Providers.
  • Since our team has been through (and overcome!) logistical obstacles and supply chain bottle-necks on both sides of the proverbial "fence", we have numerous solutions for common and not-so-common problems readily available!
  • Our goal is to help reduce your transportation spending and carbon footprint without giving up the performance level that you deserve! 
  • We accomplish this by carefully studying your supply chain and making recommendations based on our decades of logistics experience.
  • GoFreight is headquartered in Schaumburg, IL, bur team is ready to travel and be at your disposal anywhere in the US and Canada. 
  • While we are willing to go to you, there are many projects that we can completed remotely, without the need for an on-site visit.

source the right transportation service providers!

Here is how we can help: 

  •  Create & distribute RFPs & RFQs to the right Carriers, Brokers & Freight Forwarders. While cost savings is the goal, it is important to look at the big picture and realize what the "Total Cost" of using one provider vs. another may be. It is very easy to take the lower rate up front, only to be hit with additional charges, damaged product and service failures later.
  •  Asset-Based Vs. Non Asset-Based provider analysis. Each type has different benefits, let us show you which is best for your needs!
  •  Keep your provider base fresh and diversified by monitoring Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that we can set up for your company! With regular reporting, you can see the true "Total Cost" of your freight and make adjustments before problems start piling up.
  •  How you package and prepare your product for shipment can have a tremendous impact on your "Total Cost" of transportation. Unscrupulous Transportation Service Providers often take advantage of unknowing shippers by consolidating freight with other shipments that are not compatible, causing damages and delaying the shipments from reaching their destination. If anyone should be taking advantage of consolidating your shipments, it should be you! Let GoFreight show you how to properly ship your product and secure the shipment with our proven techniques and prevent damages and delays from forced consolidation attempts.
  • If you do not fully utilize the space on a trailer or shipping container, we can show you how to safely consolidate your freight, and even how you can partner with other shippers in the same supply chain for shared cost saving in a freight "Pooling" program.
  • Rail and intermodal may have a bad reputation due to delays an damages, but there are ways to utilize the multi-modal network without delaying or damaging your shipments. This can significantly reduce your "Total Cost" of transportation while saving our environment. If you ship on certain lanes, some of your freight is already going over the rail, even without your consent. Let us show you if your Transportation Service Providers are passing the savings on to you. We have methods of determining if even one pallet of your freight is going over the rail without your consent!
  • Contact us today! We will evaluate your logistics network free of charge. If we determine that we cannot help you gain more efficiency, we will not charge you anything for the evaluation, and you will have the peace of mind that your supply chain is running as efficiently as possible. If we can help your company optimize it's transportation network, then we will submit to you an initial proposal within 48 hours. Should you decide not to use our services, the initial evaluation is still free of charge! Either way, you win!
