6 T&L Services to Leave Behind in 2021

When this year is over, what will you be happy to leave behind? A whole lot!? Yeah, us too!

But if we can set aside politics and health crises for just a moment (we know, what’s left!?), there are a few other things that we can feel really good about leaving behind in the New Year. This is especially true when it comes to your logistics processes.

If you’re looking to shed some weight, streamline your logistics, and win back your time in 2021, then you need to consider leaving these 6 T&L services behind:

Storage Space

Whether you have seasonal product or just want to clear out the office, storing your items for long term or short term is a great way to declutter in the new year. What’s not great are mismanaged storage facilities, unregulated temperatures, and long term contracts. Not to mention, you’re still on the hook to move your items to and from the facility. (Hopefully they’re open when you need access!)

Leave that stress behind in 2021! Find a full service transportation and logistics provider like Eagle Express that offers centrally located and secure warehouse space and serves your specific needs. Need additional security? Temperature control? Or HIPAA certified handlers? We can handle it. And when your items are ready to move, we can pick, pack, and ship your products- anytime of day or night. Managing your own warehouse fulfillment is so 2020.

Rental Fleet

Maintaining your own fleet is exhausting. We should know! We have a variety of vehicles including straight trucks and refrigerated vans at our disposal to serve customers with all types of cargo. But that’s all part of our business plan.

If you’re maintaining your own fleet or rental vehicles to move your product to customers, you’re spending unnecessary cash and undue stress. Leave behind the rental contracts and outsource your transportation. With Eagle Express, you’ll still get a dedicated driver and dedicated vehicle. Your cargo won’t stop for consolidation or wait for a full truckload. You won’t have to worry about maintenance, sanitization, or licensed drivers- a 3PL partner like Eagle will take care of it for you.

Interdepartmental Deliveries

If your organization is spread over multiple locations within or outside of the Metroplex, then interoffice deliveries are part of your supply chain. But executing them yourself doesn’t have to be. A scheduled delivery route between your locations can move mail, supplies, prototypes and so much more, all with the utmost of security and care.

This service also works for businesses operating under COVID-19 work-from-home methods. With employees working remotely, you need a delivery service that handles commercial and residential transportation. Connecting your dispersed employees has never been easier! 

Scheduled Routes

Moving items on a scheduled daily, weekly, or bimonthly route is a great way to keep your business stocked and your customers satisfied, but if you’re making these frequent deliveries with internal employees, you’re doing yourself no favors. We get that you want quality and friendly drivers who are dependable and operate as front-line customer service. But did you know you can get all that with a third party transportation provider for your scheduled routes?

Eagle Express couriers are background checked and trained to provide top of the line customer service. On our scheduled routes, we get to know our customers and their preferences. It’s the reason why we have many clients we’ve been serving for decades! We’d love to take over those scheduled routes, whether in town, or to locations outside of North Texas. We’ll execute them with dependability and professionalism.

Heavy Lifting

Heavy machinery, pallets of product, or oversized items aren’t easy to move. Especially when you’re trying to move them on your own. Don’t bother. In 2021, let a professional delivery team move your large items. The Eagle fleet includes lift-equipped straight trucks and a variety of vehicle sizes. Our drivers are trained and equipped to transport your heavy or oversized items- even if they need to be delivered to a commercial location with more than one floor.

Our team is also insured. Which means our couriers and your cargo are in responsible hands. Should an unforeseen event occur, our team is fully insured, backed by A-rated providers. So save the hassle, and the lower back pain, and let Eagle Express take on the heavy lifting in 2021.
