Transportation

There are numerous steps to the contract packaging process. Transportation and the coordinated movement of goods from one location to another for co-pack and fulfillment services has long been an area of consideration. Costly double handling and coordination efforts can be trying even for the most efficient operations. MSL has a solution for this coordinated effort with our transportation division MS Transportation (MST). Though our local private fleet MST smooths the efforts of logistics movement between the brand’s DC / primary manufacturer / or supplier of materials into MSL for co-pack processing or e-commerce fulfillment.

As a premium logistics solution provider, we aim to support you through every step of this process, from beginning to end. We obtain products from your facility and load them into our trucks for shipment to MSL COPACK + ECOMM or the next destination. All transportation clients and brands receive the highest level of professionalism and service in handling your brands and delivering them to your desired location and package them safely and efficiently for you and your customers.

Drop Trailer Services

In many cases, MSL coordination from the brand manufacturer or DC to MSL required additional drop trailers in the mix. This program allows flexibility for the client and MSL alike to unload/reload trailers without compromising the driver’s idle time sitting at the dock. Drop trailer program increases efficiency for facilities with limited dock appointment times, after-hours product handling, or programs where materials may have extended load times. The driver can focus on more time moving goods from point A to point B without compromising on precious available on-duty drivable hours. Drop trailer programs can decrease the “cost per unit” associated with individual trailer moves by allowing for a reduced round trip rate in exchange for detention and time associated with loading/unloading.

Coordination with Transportation Leg

Many businesses are forced to engage with multiple contractors to coordinate proper transportation for their products. Unfortunately, the more contractors you get involved with your business, the more costs increase as well as the risk of error due to gaps in the flow of information. A strategic advantage of MSL is that we offer turnkey coordination between concept design, co-pack services, logistical coordination, cost-competitive local transport, and efficient systems-driven fulfillment.

We fully prepare your product for delivery to be shipped directly to the end-user, the person meant to use the product. When we transport products, we deliver them with the insurance that no additional preparation is required. We supply truckloads to various end-users. MSL can process shipments direct to retailer DCs, prepare for Retailer pickup, or process individual e-commerce fulfillment orders direct to the consumer.  

In addition, MSL provides warehouse to warehouse coordination in instances where our client does not want us delivering directly to the consumer or retail facility. We specialize in local transportation full truckload services however, this does not prevent us from assisting you in shipping your products long distances.
