The 3 advantages of hiring local road transport directly
Introduction:
Road transport is a fundamental mode of transport for commerce and the economy. In Spain, road transport represents 90% of freight transport.
Local road transport is transport that is carried out over short distances, generally within the same region or country. This type of transportation is especially important for local and regional commerce, as it allows companies to transport their goods quickly and efficiently.

In this post, we are going to analyze the 3 main advantages of directly hiring local road transport.
Advantage 1: Better service control
By contracting local road transport directly, the company has greater control over the service. You can choose the carrier that best suits your needs, based on factors such as experience, reliability, vehicle fleet or geographic coverage.
In addition, the company can negotiate the conditions of the service, such as price, delivery times or additional services. This allows the company to tailor the service to your specific needs.
For example, a company that needs to transport goods with a very short delivery time can negotiate with the carrier to be given priority. Or, a company that needs to transport goods that require special treatment, such as dangerous goods or perishable goods, can negotiate with the carrier so that the necessary measures are taken to ensure the safety and preservation of the goods.
Advantage 2: More flexibility
By contracting local road transport directly, the company has more flexibility. You can modify the terms of service based on your needs.
For example, a company that needs to transport goods at a special time may request the carrier to deliver at a different time than usual. Or, a company that needs to transport goods to an unforeseen destination can ask the carrier to deliver to that destination.
This flexibility is especially important for companies that operate in a dynamic environment, as it allows them to quickly adapt to changes in their needs.
Advantage 3: Better price
By contracting local road transport directly, the company can obtain a better price. The carrier does not have to pay commissions to shipping agencies, so it can offer more competitive prices.
In addition, the carrier is directly interested in offering good service to the company, since he wants to maintain his business. This can translate into lower prices, since the carrier is willing to give discounts to build loyalty with the company.
