Load Optimization Strategies

Full Truckload Optimization

Target: 616 pallets per truckload for maximum efficiency and best transportation rates.

Benefits: Lowest per-pallet shipping cost, dedicated truck, faster transit times.

Strategy: Combine multiple conditions or coordinate with other shipments to reach FTL quantity.

Mixed Condition Strategy

Approach: Combine different pallet conditions to optimize cost while meeting quality requirements.

Example: Use Grade A for high-value products, Grade B for general warehousing in same shipment.

Savings: Can reduce overall costs by 15-25% while maintaining operational efficiency.

Volume Tier Planning

Tiers: 51+ pallets (-$1), 201+ (-$2.50), 501+ (-$4), 1001+ (-$6 per pallet).

Planning: Time purchases to hit volume thresholds for maximum per-pallet savings.

Impact: Proper tier planning can save thousands on large orders.
