How does the Columbus office support carrier development?

We focus on building and strengthening carrier relationships across the Midwest and East. By developing consistent lanes and capacity partnerships, we help ensure customers have reliable options even during peak demand or tight markets.

What international transportation options are available near Columbus?

Columbus is home to Rickenbacker International, one of the country’s few cargo-dedicated airports, with regular global service from major freighters. Combined with FTZ #138 and nearby intermodal rail, Columbus supports both import and export freight movements seamlessly.

Can Columbus handle both regional and long-haul transportation needs?

Yes. Columbus’s interstate access makes it an efficient hub for regional moves to cities like Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Pittsburgh, while also providing reliable linehaul service to the East Coast and Midwest. This balance gives shippers flexibility to cover multiple service areas from a single location.

What role does technology play in transportation operations?

Legacy integrates advanced transportation management systems (TMS) that provide real-time tracking, electronic data interchange (EDI), and carrier performance monitoring. These tools help customers gain complete visibility into their freight.

Solving a Major Manufacturer’s Fleet Operations at Scale

A leading home appliance manufacturer ran a dedicated fleet across six U.S. terminals, moving 200 truckloads weekly with over 100 drivers. The operation also included yard management and logistics admin—but rising turnover, safety issues, and compliance gaps signaled the need for change. Their 3PL couldn’t keep up.

Legacy, already managing their warehousing, stepped in with a full asset management model. They introduced unified communication, upgraded the TMS and yard systems, launched a driver training academy, and consolidated West Coast operations to cut costs. With clear metrics and consistent leadership, the fleet became a benchmark for performance across the manufacturer’s transportation network.

Service: Measured in Loads Returned/No Truck Available – went from nearly 3/day down to ~0/day.
Productivity: Measured in Spots Per Hour – went from 1.4 to 1.9 in year one.
Safety: Drove more than 30% reduction in composite percentile against all other CMV fleets – a CSA score that drives DOT audits.
Costs: Performed an equipment utilization study that cut trailer lease costs by 20%
