LTL carrier Saia Inc., Duluth, Ga., has expanded its Guaranteed Select
Service that offers choices for guaranteed delivery times.

The enhanced Guaranteed Select Service allows customers to choose from three tiers of delivery times for their shipments. The three delivery options are:
* GSS 12 -- Shipments guaranteed to arrive by noon;
* GSS 2 -- Shipments guaranteed to arrive by 2 p.m.; and
* GSS 5 -- Shipments guaranteed to arrive by 5 p.m.
Expanded Guaranteed Select Service is now available for freight moving between direct points in Saia's network of 127 terminals covering 30 states.
Saia launched the Guaranteed Select products in a five-state area in December 2004 after research showed that guaranteed shipping options are important to customers when selecting a carrier. In line with these findings, Saia has expanded its Guaranteed Select product line to feature the three guaranteed delivery options throughout the day.
The new service joins Saia's family of GS products: GS Standard, with guaranteed arrival by standard transit times; GS Accelerated, with expedited service and guaranteed arrivals in a shorter time frame than published transit times at a direct service point; GS Precise, with shipments guaranteed to arrive within a half-hour of a specified time at a point served directly by Saia; and GS Custom, with other guaranteed or expedited shipping needs a customer may have.
Saia Inc. and Jevic Transportation are wholly owned subsidiaries of SCS
Transportation Inc., Kansas City, Mo.
