Meyers, a Midwest printing company, partnered with C.H. Robinson starting in 2009 to manage LTL, truckload, and small parcel shipments. C.H. Robinson implemented customized reports and accessorial tools that automated drop-ship address loading and flagged over-dimensional items. These changes reduced labor, improved package integrity, and became standard offerings for similar shippers.

Key takeaways

Expanded from LTL and truckload to ground, express, and international small parcel services

Custom reports automated billing, transit tracking, and batch rate analysis

Tools flagged overweight and dimensional shipments before tendering

Direct account manager access replaced generic 800-number support

Labor savings from automated drop-ship address loading and pricing exercises
