Schneider’s new online marketplace FreightPower gives shippers access to an expanded, flexible capacity network, according to the company.
Leveraging Schneider’s trailer pool and carrier relationships, FreightPower provides on-demand, box-on-site storage and transportation, and is backed by Schneider’s network of qualified third-party carriers.
“We operate one of the largest North American freight networks, with over 12,000 trucks and 35,000 trailers,” says Erin Van Zeeland, group senior vice president of Schneider Logistics Services. “In addition to our vast equipment assets, we have relationships with more than 34,000 carriers, all ready to carry customer loads each and every day.”
FreightPower helps shippers of all sizes find capacity, even in challenging markets and locations.
“We’re constantly investing in new ways to provide shippers with more capacity,” says Mark Rourke, Schneider’s president and chief executive officer. “Shippers of all sizes come to us with their toughest transportation challenges, and we’re solving them faster than ever before.”
