A Dallas-based 3PL provider has approached ABC Company with a proposal to run a consolidation operation where they would pick up the supplier shipments each week and load them on to one truck for shipment to Albuquerque. The relative data for this alternative shipping method are as follows:
Local pickup fee = $31 pickup fee
Average weight per supplier shipment = 160 lbs.
Local consolidation fee = $38 per hundred-weight
Consolidated TL shipment from Dallas to Albuquerque = $890
What is the total cost of shipping the separate parcel shipments from the Dallas-area suppliers to the ABC company location in Albuquerque?
