Parcelhero has launched instant online pricing for air pallet freight, replacing a 24 to 48 hour manual quoting process that has long been standard across the industry.
Until now, businesses shipping pallets and heavy freight had to wait up to 48 hours for manual air freight quotes – an outdated process that slowed purchasing, inventory planning and delivery schedules.
Now, the international delivery specialist Parcelhero has launched an instant, door to door pallet freight service for both international and domestic destinations. With this new feature, door to door pallet shipping quotes can now be generated in seconds, allowing businesses to compare prices, complete bookings and track shipments online – as easily as sending a parcel.
Built for consignments of more than 150 KG, the new platform empowers businesses to book cost efficient pallet and cargo deliveries online in minutes and access complete end to end visibility, including Customs documentation and real time tracking.
This innovation marks a step change for the freight industry – streamlining the booking process for bulk, oversized and palletised cargo. Businesses now benefit from the same speed, transparency and convenience that parcel shippers have long enjoyed.
Parcelhero’s founder and CEO, Roger Sumner-Rivers, said: ‘Freight pricing shouldn’t be a waiting game. Using instant online technology, we have made it possible to quote and book international palletised air freight faster than ever. Businesses can now quote, book and ship without ever picking up the phone.
‘The update makes UK and international freight logistics simpler, smarter and dramatically more efficient, turning what used to be a multi-day process into a matter of seconds.’
