flstc2000 said:Everybody is in the logistics business. Look at each major carrier and you will find some type of logistic operation. So, when a customer orders freight, the supplier may contact their logistic provider, who then in turn sends a message to the warehouse to ship a certain item, and if the consignee has a contract or specifies a particular carrier then that carrier is called for the pick-up.
In short, the logistics provider has nothing to do with the carrier of choice, unless no carrier is specified by the shipper or the consignee.
your right. for example, we've been delivering IBM parts to a UPS Chain Supply warhouse in lower Manhattan for years. Yellow as well. never once have i seen a Menlo or UPSF contractor in there.
