In the rapidly developing modern logistics industry, choosing the right logistics company is crucial to ensure safe and efficient transportation of goods. Here are several practical methods to help you better screen and select logistics providers that meet your needs.
Step 1: Conducting an Initial Search
Begin by entering the 'origin' and 'destination' in the search field on the homepage:
- The 'origin' field typically defaults to your current city but can be changed as needed.
- Search results may vary depending on whether you select secondary cities or tertiary regions. For example:
- Searching "Linyi City - Beijing City" will display routes from [Linyi City] to [Beijing City]
- Searching "Linyi City - Tongzhou District, Beijing" will show routes specifically to [Tongzhou District, Beijing]
Step 2: Ensuring Search Accuracy
To obtain accurate search results, please note the following guidelines:
- When entering destinations, use only city or county/district names (e.g., "Qingdao" or "Shunde")
- Avoid entering provincial names directly (e.g., "Shandong")
- Do not prefix cities with province names (e.g., "Shandong Qingdao")
- Do not prefix districts with city names (e.g., "Foshan Shunde")
- For townships with limited direct long-distance transport options, try searching their parent county or city if no results appear
- Verify city names for spelling errors to improve search success rates
Step 3: Refining Your Search
On the resulting route list page, use the 'branch filter' function to more precisely locate branch information for both origin and destination locations.
Step 4: Evaluating Logistics Providers
The following factors can help you select a logistics company that meets your expectations:
- Proximity: Check the addresses of pickup and delivery branches to select logistics providers with nearby locations
- Service Quality: Reference service ratings and customer reviews to choose providers with higher service standards
- Reliability: Consider the amount of security deposits as an indicator of service guarantees
- Popularity: Examine order volumes to identify providers recognized by more shippers
- Experience: Note membership duration to select more established service providers
- Value: After registration, compare service prices to choose cost-effective options
By following these methods, you can systematically screen and select logistics companies that best fit your specific requirements.
