Los Angeles to Miami Freight Broker
Los Angeles, CA clothing distributor has Oversize delivery to trade show
An Los Angeles, CA clothing distributor is exhibiting at a trade show in the Miami, FL. This is nothing new to them, and there have been problems with other carriers on previous shows.
Perhaps it’s the sheer volume – requiring half of an entire truckload to transport. Then there’s ensuring the freight and the over-the-road move from Los Angeles, CA to Miami,FL, along with stops in Dallas, TX and Orlando, FL to pick up additional freight. Adding to the complexity, a deal is made at the show, and equipment is sold to a company in Newark, NJ to ship overseas. Now you need to handle the inland move to port, and you need to act as the Carrier (NVOCC) to take the goods to the port in Newark, NJ. By any standard, a very large endeavor with a great deal at stake should any phase in the project go wrong.
Easy to say “no thanks,” right? Wrong. In this example, the sea freight division did all of the above and received “Best move-in EVER” accolades from the exhibitor and the show management firm. Talk to us, and we will help you “Sea” the opportunity too!
