5 95% of Cerasis Business is managing and empowering shippers to ship freight via Less than Truckload The Cerasis Transportation Management System, the Cerasis Rater, processed over 300,000 LTL freight shipments in Cerasis audited EVERY LTL Freight Invoice for our customers. Cerasis handled all LTL freight claims on behalf of our customers. No matter how many LTL shipments any of Cerasis freight shippers had in a week, shippers only had to get ONE freight invoice each week. Why is Cerasis Putting on an LTL Webinar?
6 Why is Cerasis Putting on an LTL Webinar? Cerasis negotiates all the LTL freight rates with preferred and optimal LTL freight carriers on behalf of customers, maintaining those rates each year, and if possible, down to the specific lanes for best pricing. Cerasis has worked with shippers and carriers in this way for nearly TWO decades, starting off as a niche LTL Freight Management 3PL since In short, although most find LTL too volatile and complex, Cerasis LOVES simplifying the process of LTL freight shipping for those who ship freight via LTL freight (and Full Truckload or Small Package for that matter!)
7 What is LTL Shipping? LTL = Less Than Truckload Less than Truckload is a shipment that does not require a full 48- or 53-foot trailer, which is referred to as a FULL truckload. Many LTL freight carriers specialize in different services, based on your specific needs.
8 What is LTL Shipping? There are many options to ship freight: air, rail, water, truck. In the United States, shipping by truck is the dominant mode, offering a lot of options, flexibility, and lower costs. Although intermodal, or rail, has been picking up as of late, truck transportation still can move items faster with more flexibility.
9 What is LTL Shipping? FTL vs. LTL LTL = Less than Truckload Can be full or not, Many Products, Many Customers More Cost Effective FTL = Full Truckload Full Container, One Product, One Customer
10 What is LTL Shipping? What are the Characteristics of a LTL Shipping Carrier? Generally utilize van trailers which are covered or enclosed trailers Few refrigerated LTL carriers who utilize temperature controlled trailers Roll up doors on the rear are a trend these days Some carriers will use pup trailers that they can haul two trailers in tandem LTL carriers will not accept shipments that cannot fit onto one pup trailer
11 What is LTL Shipping? How did LTL Shipping Come About in North America? Trucking Industry regulated first in 1935 by the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) The Motor Carrier Act of 1935 required new truckers to seek a certificate of public convenience and necessity Act required motor carriers to file their tariffs with the ICC 30 days before they became effective & then available to view Tariffs could then be subject to a challenge by another carrier or railroad
12 What is LTL Shipping? How did LTL Shipping Come About in North America? Deregulation Truman vetoes the act in 1948, but Congress allowed carriers to both fix price and be exempt from antitrust legislation. The ICC denied applications from new carriers for the next 30 years In the 70s, Nixon, Ford, and Carter put acts in place to reduce price fixing & collective vendor pricing. The Motor Carrier Act of 1980 resulted in intense price competition & lower profit margins Between 1977 and 1982, the average LTL rate fell by up to 20%. The number of carriers doubled between 1980 and 1990, with over 40,000 carriers in the US.
