Industrial Equipment Transportation: EquipNet Worldwide Logistics

EquipNet’s Logistics service frees our customers from the necessary tasks and complex details that protect their equipment and cuts the cost of shipping too.

• Obtaining competitive freight quotes from a variety of national and international carriers

Supply Chain Changes to Watch for

• According to a report by Gartner Consulting, by 2018, 20 percent of companies will get technology that optimizes inbound freight collaboration between buyers and providers of third-party logistics, or 3PLs.
• A report by Carrier Direct published in the American Journal of Transportation said, “Despite the fragile global economy, the logistics and trucking segment is growing overall. The industry is being impacted by shifting price strategies, the growth of non-asset 3PLs and ground-breaking innovation in all segments… carriers and 3PLs need to solidify sound practices involving technology and create competitive, yet valuable services as the basis of their companies or they won’t be able to contend with the best in the quickly changing marketplace.”

“I must say this will be our 2nd recent use of EquipNet Logistics to handle our auction purchases of sensitive laboratory equipment. I am confident in your company’s coordination and use of vendors/shippers to pack, crate and otherwise ship such items from the auction locations. It makes it much more convenient to coordinate with EquipNet than with 3rd party movers. My compliments on your great customer service, too!”

-Brian, EquipNet Auction Buyer
