About Us

Experience

C-F Transportation has 150 years of combined transportation experience. Our deep expertise means we can tailor our services to meet shipper’s exact needs. Unlike other brokers & 3PLs, we directly oversee every single shipment to ensure you benefit from our expertise at every step of the process. Other service providers may assign your shipments to agents with limited experience.

 

Network

We have developed a network of trusted carriers/cold storage solutions/3PLs that we hand selected for their understanding of the mutual value of long-term partnerships. Other operators offer unsustainable, bargain-basement pricing to win bids. In order to do so, they contract with the lowest-cost operators available regardless of track record. This results in hidden costs and risk. Every trusted partner in our network is carefully vetted, enabling us to offer consistent top-tier service and long-term savings (including relative to bargain-basement operators) by avoiding the hidden cost pitfalls others are susceptible to. 

 

Assets

We own 50+ trucks to effectively handle volumes under tight environments. We understand the cycles of capacity demand and are able manage fluctuations in the capacity cycle using our extensive asset base. Asset-lite operators get squeezed during capacity cycle fluctuations resulting in significant unforeseen pass-through costs to the customer.  

Additionally, our warehousing facilities ensure your product is moved in a safe environment in a heavily regulated industry avoiding the pitfalls of exposing product to unknown cycles. 

 

Location & Flexibility

Finally, our location provides a significant advantage for our customers. Because we are local, we can offer optimum flexibility, tailoring our services to optimize for shipper’s operational efficiencies and cost savings. Our location gives us the ability to offer daily pick up services, last minute services, and other enhancements. Our local hub of operations enables us to combine  shipments with any of our other shipments, providing the greatest potential for cost optimization, passing savings back to our customers.
