The Detention Fee Dilemma

As a distribution center or warehouse manager, you understand the significant impact detention fees from carriers can have on your bottom line. Beyond the financial impact, these penalties can affect your relationships with carriers and the goal of being the destination-of-choice. These fees not only eat into your profits but also disrupt your operations, leading to delays and inefficiencies. Moreover, they often signal underlying issues in your process, such as inefficient staffing or poor scheduling.

However, there is a solution that can help alleviate this financial burden while streamlining your process: outsourcing your unloading to FHI.
