FAQ
What is a Third Party Logistics (3PL) company?
A third party logistics (3PL) company is one that provides outsourced ocean container or air freight from other countries, warehouse storage, order fulfillment, transloading and cross-docking, domestic transportation/shipping via TL (Truck Load), LTL (Less-than-Truck Load) and Small Parcel. 3PL companies can also manage order packaging, provide re-labeling, re-palletize, handle and manage returns, track inventory and be a valuable e-commerce partner.

What is the difference between "Asset Based" and "Non-Asset Based" 3PL Freight/Transportation companies?
Generally speaking, "Asset Based" companies own their equipment (trucks and trailers) and they employ the drivers that operate them "Non-Asset Based" companies offer many or all of the services of their "Asset Based" competitors but they do NOT own their own equipment. They usually leverage networks and affiliated vendor partners. Mega Logistic offers customers both of the above options.
What are the first steps to switching from my current 3PL to another like Mega Logistic?
First, you need to identify the "must have" items you require (minimum requirements for warehouse space, technology integration, service levels, etc) so you can answer an RFQ (Request for Quote) Questionnaire from a new 3PL and provide valuable data (like SKUs, photos of product, etc) .
Then, you need to confirm the terms of your current contract including notice periods and termination clauses so you can set an ideal new starting date (usually 3-6 months from the start of the evaluation)
Then, depending on each 3PL, the new prospective 3PL will schedule: (1) an Introduction Call, (2) a second Discovery and Data Exchange Call to complete your Profile, (3) Tour of Facility, (4) Submission of Quote, Negotiation of Rates and Services and then signing of a formal Contractual Agreement.
Your 3PL Business Development or Sales Contact will lead you through it.
