Expedited Flatbed Freight:
This is always important to determine beforehand, as it will raise the shipping costs. You may need expedited service, or team-driver services if the freight has to deliver overnight or across the country in two days. The per mile rate difference will be significant as opposed to a standard time frame delivery. Plan ahead for expedited shipments.
