The story
The shipment
A sailboat arriving from China, bound for Vancouver Island.
The problem
Direct discharge was required: the boat had to come off the vessel straight onto the truck. Loaded, it was too tall for the clearance available on the route.
The response
Rather than treating the load as impossible, the team worked through the physical constraint and found enough height by carefully reducing tire pressure until the load cleared.
The result
The shipment moved. Inches made the difference.
Inches made the difference.
Sometimes logistics is a rate. Sometimes it is figuring out how to make something physically possible.
