Freight isn’t exactly known for being eco-friendly. Trucks, ships, planes — they all move the world’s goods and, well, a lot of emissions along with them. So when companies talk about going green, freight is often the elephant in the room.

Shipping hazardous materials is a whole different beast. It’s not like moving pallets of bottled water or sending a few dozen boxes of auto parts. We’re talking chemicals, flammable stuff, corrosives, toxic waste—the kind of cargo where “oops” isn’t just expensive, it’s dangerous. So yeah, choosing the right logistics partner? Kind of a big deal.

You’ve got a truck out on the road, burning fuel, using a driver’s full shift… and it’s only 60% full. Not because you didn’t have more cargo. But because, somehow, it just didn’t get loaded right — or planned right — or no one realized there was another drop going in the same direction tomorrow.

Let’s start with the obvious: freight is messy. You’ve got too many carriers, too many moving parts, and way too many people asking, “Where’s my shipment?” Rates fluctuate. Capacity vanishes. Your top customer just changed their delivery windows again.
