Simplifying Supply Chain Management

In the modern marketplace, efficient logistics is not just a support function. It is a competitive differentiator. Whether you are shipping raw materials to a factory or finished goods to retailers, the speed and cost of your freight directly impact your bottom line. However, managing multiple carriers, deciphering complex rate tables, and tracking shipments across the continental U.S. and Canada can be an administrative burden.

 

Hollander Storage and Moving makes it easier to manage your supply chain. We are the Logistics Specialist you can trust to handle your shipping, storage, and tracking needs. By combining personal service with powerful technology, we help businesses of all sizes optimize their freight operations. We do not just move goods. We provide the intelligence and infrastructure to ensure they move efficiently.

The Hollander Advantage

Powered by UniGroup Logistics

We are an agent of UniGroup Logistics. This partnership gives us access to a massive transportation infrastructure that includes a reliable LTL (Less Than Truckload) Freight Carrier network. We can help manage your freight shipping needs through a specialized routing system. This system analyzes your specific shipment parameters to identify the lowest cost shipping method without compromising on service quality. You get the purchasing power of a national logistics leader with the personalized attention of a local partner.  

Technology-Driven Efficiency

We believe that technology should make your life easier. Our secure web application is designed to centralize your logistics management. It provides competitive rate quotes instantly, allowing you to make informed decisions in seconds. By automating the quoting and booking process, we make shipping more efficient and cost-effective. You no longer need to spend hours on the phone with brokers. Everything you need is at your fingertips.  

Comprehensive Coverage

Our reach extends far beyond our local area. We service the Continental U.S. as well as Canada. Whether you are shipping cross-country or cross-border, we handle the logistics coordination to ensure seamless transit.  

Our Logistics Technology Features

Our platform is built to give you total control over your shipping environment. Here is how our technology empowers your business.

Quick and Easy Quoting

Speed is essential in logistics. Our system allows for quick and easy quoting. You can input your shipment details and receive immediate rate comparisons from trusted carriers in our network. This transparency ensures you are always getting the best deal for your specific lane and weight class.  

Book Shipments Directly

Once you find the right rate, you can book shipments directly from quotes. There is no need to re-enter data or switch platforms. With a few clicks, your shipment is scheduled, and the carrier is notified. This streamlined workflow reduces administrative errors and saves your team valuable time.  

Customized Product Catalog

Efficiency improves with use. Our system builds a product catalog that is customized based on your history. If you frequently ship specific SKUs or materials, the system remembers them. This allows you to auto-fill details for future orders, significantly speeding up the booking process for recurring shipments.  

Dynamic Address Book

Managing a diverse customer base is simple with our address book feature. You can add new shipping locations easily and store them for future use. Whether you are shipping to a recurring vendor or a new customer, their details are saved securely, ensuring accuracy on every Bill of Lading.  

Integrated Documentation

Paperwork is often the bottleneck in shipping. Our secure web application allows you to print, email, or fax your quotes, Bill of Ladings, or shipping labels directly from the site. You can generate all necessary shipping documents instantly, ensuring your warehouse team has the labels they need to get the freight out the door.  

Visibility and Reporting

You cannot improve what you cannot measure. Hollander provides robust tracking and reporting tools to give you deep insights into your supply chain performance.

Real-Time Shipment Tracking

Uncertainty kills customer satisfaction. We provide comprehensive shipment tracking and a quick view of shipment status. You can see exactly where your freight is at any moment. Furthermore, our system sends email notifications of shipment status, keeping you and your customers informed of pickups, departures, and final deliveries automatically.  

Customized Charts and Maps

Data is most useful when it is visual. Our platform features customized charts and maps that display shipping history. You can visualize your shipping density, identify high-volume lanes, and spot trends over time. This visual data helps you make strategic decisions about inventory placement and carrier selection.  

Customized Reporting Features

Every business has unique KPIs. We offer customized reporting features that allow you to dig into the details. Whether you need to analyze spend per carrier, average transit times, or freight costs by department, our system can generate the reports you need. This data-driven approach allows you to audit your logistics spend and identify areas for further cost savings.

Our Logistics Process

1. Account Setup and Analysis

We start by setting up your profile in our secure web application. We analyze your typical shipping volume and lanes to ensure the system is optimized for your needs.

2. Quoting and Booking

Your team logs in to request a quote. The specialized routing system identifies the best carrier options. You select the best fit and book the shipment instantly.

3. Documentation Generation

The system generates the shipping labels and Bill of Lading. You print these out and attach them to the freight.

4. Pickup and Transit

The selected LTL carrier arrives for pickup. The shipment enters our reliable network and begins its journey. You receive an email notification confirming the pickup.

5. Tracking and Delivery

You monitor the progress via the dashboard. Upon arrival, you receive a final delivery notification. The data is stored in your history for future reporting.

Tips for Efficient Freight Management

Consolidate Shipments

Whenever possible, combine smaller shipments into a single larger load. LTL carriers often offer better rates for heavier, denser pallets compared to multiple small, loose shipments.  

Verify Class and Weight

Accurate data is crucial. Ensure you are using the correct Freight Class and precise weight for your items. Inaccurate data can leading to "re-weigh" or "re-class" fees from the carrier which can inflate your final bill.  

Utilize the Address Book

Encourage your team to keep the digital address book updated. Accurate contact information at the destination ensures the driver can contact the receiver, preventing missed deliveries and redelivery fees.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is LTL Shipping?

LTL stands for “Less Than Truckload.” It is a shipping method used when your freight is too large for a parcel carrier (like FedEx or UPS) but does not fill an entire semi-trailer. Your freight shares space on the truck with other shippers, making it a cost-effective option.

Do you service Canada?

Yes. We service the Continental U.S. as well as Canada. We can handle the logistics for cross-border shipments, ensuring your freight moves smoothly between the two countries.

How does the routing system save money?

Our specialized routing system compares rates from multiple carriers in our network. It identifies the lowest cost shipping method for your specific route and timeline. This ensures you are not locked into a single carrier’s pricing and always get the best market rate.

Is the web application secure?

Yes. We utilize a secure web application to protect your data. Your address book, shipping history, and pricing information are encrypted and accessible only to authorized users.
