Flexible Schedules and Savings for Gilman Electrical Supply

GES needed to ship lighting fixtures to a major grocery store customer outside of the physical territory they serve. In order to get the materials to different locations out of state, it wasn't possible for staff to drive GES vehicles down there, and the option of shipping on a common carrier or less than a truckload's worth of materials would cause too many scheduling headaches. The fixtures were also fragile, so loading and unloading a container positioned on an incline presented a significant risk.

By working with PODS, GES were able to provide a better service for their customers and make operations much easier for their in-house teams. PODS was able to make all the necessary arrangements to ensure logistics ran smoothly, helping to improve efficiency levels and streamline processes. As a result of the company's partnership with PODS, GES has been able to expand its business by taking on new projects and working seamlessly across a larger geographic area.
