There is now a surplus in capacity in the transportation industry but the trend is for carriers to park their trucks or close their doors because of high diesel fuel costs and a down turned economy.

Shipping Transportation
Shippers are trying to stay competitive by looking for new ways to make sure they are getting the best rates but finding the process unmanageable.
According to Steve Rubin, director of the National Shippers Network, we formed this member based service to work with companies who are entering into this new era in transportation. We have set up strategic partners who provide transportation services with state of the art technologies to aid our members and give them back the control of their freight shipping services. Most members see significant increases in efficiencies and the knowledge they have been diligent in getting the best pricing possible. For more information call 951-553-7910 or email info@spiltl.com.
