Zone-Skipping

THE EVOLUTION OF ZONE-SKIPPING

Over the years, some high-volume fulfillment centers have discovered a way to save on carrier costs when shipping across the country. Small parcels from NY to LA, for example, could be consolidated on pallets, moved by LTL, and inducted into carriers network at the destination for final mile delivery. This process required a little more planning but resulted in impressive savings. The zone skipping approach has become more common recently, with more shippers taking advantage of the savings.

With techSHIP, the process of zone skipping has been raised to the next level. techSHIP introduced the AirSKIP service, an evolution of zone skipping. With AirSKIP, the middle mile delivery from a fulfillment center to the final zone is done using an extensive air network that includes a dedicated air cargo carrier and extra cargo capacity on passenger flights.

Techdinamics has been an invaluable partner in helping Blueleaf stay ahead of the ever changing demand in the 3PL industry. Because of this partnership Blueleaf offers an entire menu of integration options from ERP/ WMS to any and all E-comm/retail dropship platforms. Techdinamics has played a significant role in our growth and is a major reason why our customers chose us as their 3PL provider in BC. They handle the heavy lifting on the technical side which helps us keep our IT costs low, savings which we pass on to our customers. There were many options for us to chose from for systems integrations. However, Techdinamic’s sales and support team are extremely responsive and second to none.
