Same-day delivery proves to be beneficial not only in reducing transit time, but ultimately creating operational efficiencies, shorter delays within the supply chain, and quicker responses to error shipments. With used car sales increasing, national dealer GotTransmissions.com agrees to performing same-day shipping of used transmissions.
In a press release in YahooNews on Friday, GotTransmissions.com announced they will ship used transmissions from Ford and Chevy via same-day shipping through long haul freight transportation. The online national retailer has selected two large corporate carriers to assist in their new initiative. The goal is to reduce delays from city to city, and the report stated transit time will be reduced by approximately 50%. This shows in the long-term, same-day transportation can lead to the success businesses are after.
Business Consultant for the company, Mike Rohn, stated in the announcement, “Our decision to go with long haul freight companies was not solely a logistics decision. We feel that increasing our delivery times and stepping up shipment safety will benefit us and our customers equally although this comes at an increased cost for us." The new agreement is effective immediately and will help with used vehicle repairs this year.
Same-day deliveries is a strategic business direction to turn toward for any industry. It helps to achieve overall quality service. Most importantly, the end customer gets the reliability and dependability they expect.
GotTransmissions.com decided to go long-haul due the freight business being currently profitable with bulk loads. However, there are other viable options for same-day delivery of auto parts, even transmissions. Courier Services like A-1 Express Delivery Service provide same-day part deliveries to meet auto industry needs. Whether an online auto retailer, auto manufacturer or dealer, parts must arrive fast. A-1 Express can assist your logistics supply chain with fast deliveries of small parts to motors nationwide. With the same-day service level, part dealers can change with the current business trends for the betterment of the industry.
