Packing & Carton Optimization: Reduce shipping costs! | ShipHawk
Select the right box/carton for packing every order
Chances are, you’re packing orders in the wrong container and as a result, inaccurately rating shipments. ShipHawk’s packing optimization, aka Smart Packing™, powered by a proprietary bin-packing algorithm, selects each carton/box or pallet based on the containers you keep on hand in each DC.
Directly reduce shipping costs with cartonization software
Dimensional weight charges are real and substantial. 24 million truckloads are shipped annually in the United States as a result of shipping boxes that are too big. That’s 1.75 billion gallons of wasted diesel and 17 billion kilograms of carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere. And these costs hit your shipping bill.
Carton and pallet optimization across multiple carriers and modes (parcel and LTL)
Sending large or multi-piece parcels using a freight carrier can often save hundreds. ShipHawk’s Smart Packing™ optimizes across multiple modes, building each box and assembling those boxes into pallets for larger volume LTL shipments. ShipHawk indicates when palletizing boxes and shipping with a common carrier (LTL) or breaking apart into cartons is the best move.
