Managing freight internally can be time-consuming and unpredictable, especially as shipping volumes change. A logistics brokerage helps shippers streamline transportation while maintaining flexibility and control.

Buchanan Logistics, Inc. supports general shippers by coordinating freight transportation through experience, carrier access, and structured processes.

Having the capacity to grow with your client is a key factor with Buchanan Logistics, Inc.

Greater Access to Carrier Capacity

One of the primary benefits of using a logistics brokerage is access to a broad carrier network. Instead of relying on a limited set of carriers, shippers gain flexibility across lanes and equipment types.

Buchanan Logistics maintains relationships with carriers selected for performance and reliability.

Reduced Administrative Burden

Managing carrier communication, tracking shipments, and resolving issues requires significant internal effort. A freight broker handles these responsibilities so shippers can focus on core operations.

This managed transportation approach helps reduce internal workload while improving shipment consistency.
