Common questions
Start with the freight you need help with today.
Can Point A help with both spot and recurring freight?
Yes. We can help with one-off shipments, recurring lanes or a broader transportation program.
Will I still have a person to call?
Absolutely. The technology helps our team work better; it does not replace the people responsible for your freight.
Do we have to move everything to Point A?
No. Start with a lane, location, mode or problem area and expand only if it makes sense.
