Walkboard Express increased on-time delivery by 25%.

Leveling up with Flock Freight

Since switching to FlockDirect, which travels on direct routes and offers high on-time delivery (OTD) and pickup (OTP) rates, Walkboard Express’s OTD rates have increased by 25% and its OTP rates by 20%, compared to average LTL and PTL performance. Shipping with FlockDirect since March 2020 has also helped the company avoid over $600,000 in unnecessary costs they would have spent on partially filled truckloads, in addition to costs accrued giving customers interim household necessities.

Flock Freight consistently meets Walkboard Express’s high standards, helping keep its customers happy and its service rates high. The shipper also reaps sustainability benefits from its FlockDirect shipments. Shared truckload’s efficient use of resources and direct routes have helped Walkboard Express avoid over 965,000 pounds of CO2 emissions. Rob is particularly excited about how Flock Freight helps his company’s freight avoid terminals and that its OTD rates far surpass the rates of other providers they’ve shipped with.

While most of the loads they ship are FlockDirect, the Walkboard Express team feels empowered by Flock Freight’s service options. Depending on their needs, the team sometimes opts for standard LTL or PTL services, which generally cost a lower rate but are less direct than shared truckload. Flock Freight’s vast service offering enables Walkboard Express to have a customizable experience and remain agile in an industry that can fluctuate week by week.
