DFW Couriers Navigate Holiday Logistics
It’s that time of year. When everyone gets their tinsel in a twist. When the parking lots feel like the gladiator arena. When you just stop looking at your credit card statement. When your hustle is only outweighed by your bustle.
For most of us, this point in the holiday season means crunch time. Eagle Express is no exception. This is one of our busiest times of the year, no doubt. The difference, though, is that we’re prepared for this!
All year long, Eagle Express prepares for the holiday rush. How, you may wonder? We’ll fill you in.
Here are 4 ways couriers in DFW manage the holiday rush at this peak seasonal logistics timeframe:
1) Planning and Staffing
Just like retail locations beef up their staffing, couriers in Dallas do the same. While some of our drivers are employees of Eagle, we also hire independent contractors. These folks are trained in Eagle ins and outs, and a few extras hop on board with us during the holiday season to ensure we have enough drivers on the road to meet your growing logistics needs this some of year.
Planning ahead also includes maintaining vehicles. In order to have the right vehicle available at the right time, Eagle Express performs planned maintenance of our company owned vehicles, and hire on a few extra trucks and vans for the season.
2) Technology and Real Time Tracking
Eagle Express is dedicated to utilizing state of the art tech in our operations. For example, real time tracking allows our team to know exactly where your items are at any point in the delivery process. Don’t stay in the dark- you, too can access the location of your cargo utilizing our app. Eagle Express is also all about efficiency. With route planning software, we’re creating comprehensive, yet streamlined routes for our vehicles. Keeping costs and emissions down, while providing you the fastest delivery times at fair prices.
3) Strategic Warehousing
Thanks to our centralized location and on site storage facility, we can strategically drop off, pick up, or store your cargo at our on-site warehouse. Should you want your stored items at any point, you know where to find us! Our facility is open 24/7 for customers to access their items.
If you’re from out of town, and you need your cargo stored here in DFW, we’re happy to assist with that, as well. Our storage facilities can become distribution points for your growing business.
4) 24/7 Availability
Speaking of 25/7, that’s one of the most important ways we ensure your holiday deliveries move with care and consistency. Our customer service team is answering phones all day, every day, evening, weekends, and, of course, holidays! Whenever you’re in need of some logistics assistance, Eagle Express is here to deliver.
