NAFA knows its members use various services when they ship products nationally and internationally. Doing it yourself or using many services can be challenging and can actually cost your company more money, even when you choose the lowest price quotes. 

Ascent Global Logistics is NAFA's official transportation partner, so I interviewed their Sales Manager, Shad Zimmerman. 

In this episode of Talking Air Filtration, Shad helps you learn the pitfalls of shipping and logistics, the important differences between volume-based vs. density-based shipping, why that 48" x 40" pallet was measured wrong, and how to avoid surprise charges. 

Whether you ship products domestically or internationally, consider how Ascent Global Logistics might be able to give you a second set of eyes on your logistics budgets and give your shipping coordinator more hours back in their week. Visit http://www.nafahq.org/ascentgloballogistics for more information. And let them know NAFA sent you!

You can indirectly support NAFA by doing business with our partners. Full disclosure, NAFA receives consideration when you do business with Ascent Global Logistics.

Thanks for listening, and share this episode with your shipping coordinator!
