In the age of Amazon Prime, consumers have grown accustomed to receiving their orders within days, if not hours. A study by McKinsey found that 90% of U.S. consumers expect 2-3 day shipping to be the norm, while 30% expect same-day delivery. This shift in expectations has put immense pressure on businesses to reexamine their shipping processes.
Time in transit directly impacts these expectations. The longer a package spends in transit, the less likely you are to meet your customers’ delivery expectations. This can lead to dissatisfaction, negative reviews, and the loss of repeat business. On the other hand, faster transit times lead to happier customers, positive word-of-mouth referrals, and increased brand loyalty.
To minimize time in transit, many are turning to multi-carrier shipping solutions. Rather than relying on a single carrier like UPS or FedEx, these platforms allow you to choose from a variety of carriers for each shipment. This flexibility is a game-changer

Parcel shipping refers to shipping lighter, smaller boxed items. Typically, parcel means packages that weigh 100 pounds or less and can be moved without assistance. If you need to ship a few small packages at a time, parcel shipping is an economical way to ship your products.
LTL is a shipping method that involves transporting multiple shippers' freight on the same truck trailer. It's a cost-effective option for shipping goods that don't take up the entire space of a truck. LTL is often used for shipments that weigh between 150 and 15,000 lbs and are made up of 1 to 6 pallets.
Shipping-related charges come from any services required to move a parcel or LTL from a warehouse or fulfillment center to the end customer. Human errors and the subsequent fees, such as adding the wrong address to a shipping label, fall under this category as well.
