Lower Costs and Better Inventory Management with LCL Shipping
Smaller loads and frequent delivery make Prime Metro Delivery a perfect solution for inventory management and cost control.
Prime Metro Delivery shipping offers value to businesses with frequent, smaller deliveries by controlling per-shipment costs and decreasing the amount of inventory on hand at any given time. A strategically devised and carefully planned Prime Metro Delivery process can have an immense impact on your supply chain as a whole.
Small Shipment Savings
Prime Metro Delivery is the most affordable way to ship small, frequent deliveries. If you don’t have enough cargo to fill half of a standard shipping container, or you simply need to ship your cargo in multiple smaller loads for supply purposes, Prime Metro Delivery shipping has many benefits.
Inventory Management
Shipping products in bulk via FCL methods reduces overall freight spend but often has negative implications on inventory. Prime Metro Delivery shipping can be used to match your supply to forecasted product sales.
Reduced Storage Costs
With better inventory management comes reduced storage spend. Prime Metro Delivery shipments allow fewer goods to be held at any given time, allowing for better storage cost management. In slow sales seasons, you can hold off on ordering additional cargo and maintain low storage costs when it isn’t necessary to have the extra product on hand.

FCL Options for Simplified Delivery and Cost Control
Full container delivery services simplify your logistics and lower your freight costs.
FCL shipping solutions, when executed correctly, greatly reduce the risk of cargo damage while in transit, lower overall freight costs, and put you in control of your own logistics. Many Interlog customers have seen significant reductions in transit time through using FCL shipping methods. Consolidating freight into a single container streamlines the shipping process by bypassing the usual stops and consolidation centers involved in Prime Metro Delivery freight.
Faster Transit
Shipping freight in a full container allows you to skip the consolidation and deconsolidation processes involved in a typical Prime Metro Delivery shipment. In other words, your cargo moves as fast as the carriers do – no unnecessary stops or additional work involved.
Lower Cost
If you have enough cargo to fill at least half of a 20′ TEU, you’ll see major cost savings with FCL shipping methods. FCL removes the charges associated with consolidation and deconsolidation of cargo that’s usually distributed between all shippers who have cargo in a container.
Risk Mitigation
FCL shipments have less stops while in transit. Since there is no need for consolidation or deconsolidation of multiple shippers’ cargo, there is significantly less opportunity for your freight to get damaged. Less vendors fingerprint your cargo, which also makes vendor accountability easier in the unlikely event of damage.
Challenge and redefine your current logistics strategy. Properly executed FCL solutions can save you time and money.
Our team are experts at devising unique logistics solutions to make FCL work for otherwise strictly Prime Metro Delivery shippers. With the right balance of inventory practices, timing, and planning, converting an Prime Metro Delivery habit to an FCL solution can give you more routing, pricing, and timing options.
