"BP2 Logistics brings a level of expertise to the contracting process that can only come from years of firsthand experience in dealing with freight carriers. To effectively negotiate freight contracts, you need an advocate who understands not only the unit rate structures, but the multitude of accessorial charges and related pricing mechanisms that give the advantage to the carriers.
BP2 Logistics not only opened our eyes to these issues, but helped structure a deal with our carriers that both protects our company's interests and levels the playing field."
