Less Highway, Less Exposure Cargo theft isn't just about where freight travels. It's also about where it stops. Kristy explains why reducing highway exposure can make a difference in freight security. #KnichelLogistics #Intermodal #CEOMinute

Cargo theft isn't always about fraud. Roadside stops and overnight parking can also create opportunities for theft. Intermodal reduces these exposures by moving long-haul freight on rail instead of highways. #Intermodal #FreightSecurity

More Secure by Design Double brokering. Fictitious pickups. Why are these freight scams harder to pull off in intermodal? Kristy explains what sets this shipping method apart, and how it can be better for protecting your shipments. #KnichelLogistics #Intermodal #CEOMinute

Freight security starts before pickup. Verifying carrier information, confirming shipment details, and following secure procedures can help reduce the risk of theft and costly disruptions. A few extra steps upfront can make a difference. #FreightSecurity #FreightFraud

This #MythVsFactFriday, we’re looking at the role verification plays in freight security. ❌ Myth: Verification slows down pickups. ✅ Fact: Confirming shipment details and carrier information upfront can help prevent delays, reduce confusion, and protect freight from theft.

As peak season starts to wind down, we’re taking a look at what 2026 has looked like so far. A few numbers worth watching. 📊 #PeakSeason #Intermodal #Logistics

CEO Minute: Assets Aren’t the Advantage Owning the equipment isn’t the only way to create capacity and flexibility. Kristy explains how non-asset IMCs can use strong transportation partnerships to give shippers more options when conditions change. #KnichelLogistics #Intermodal

CEO Minute: Miss the Window, Miss the Rate RFP season is approaching. Kristy explains why shippers should look beyond rates, review performance, define goals, and start conversations with transportation partners early to build stronger strategies for the year ahead. #Intermodal

Peak season doesn’t always go according to plan. Having a Plan B ready can make it easier to adjust when things change, whether that means another route, extra capacity or a different mode. #PeakSeason #SupplyChain #Logistics
