FAQs

To realize the highest potential of your project, you need to mitigate risk. By planning and preparing the transportation early, you ensure everything runs smoothly down the line. The best way to do this is by partnering with a quality logistics partner specializing in High Stakes Freight® early on in the project.

Yes, we specialize in this type of transportation logistics.Transporting your High Stakes Freight® requires some important logistical considerations, including proper permitting to legally enter or pass state lines. If you think your High Stakes Freight® shipping might need permits, pilot cars, and/or a route survey, use our Wide, Oversized, and Heavy Haul Freight Shipping Guide to view the logistics requirements specifically for your wide, oversize, or heavy haul freight.

A transportation and logistics company such as Stream Logistics, will help you understand all the elements at play, including time and access restraints.

Put simply, High Stakes Freight® is any type of freight where there’s a lot on the line. There’s risk involved for you personally and professionally, including financial costs, timeline delays, reputational damage, and lost customers. Other companies that are optimized for routine freight don’t consider these important project management details. Instead, they treat your high-stakes project like any other routine job and leave it up to you to face the risks.

Simply put, High Stakes Freight is characterized by risk. Shipments must be on-time and managed successfully. If not, you take a hit to your reputation and to your budget. At Stream Logistics, we have identified the three core categories of High Stakes Freight®: project management, complex shipments, and/or unique constraints. All High Stakes Freight® fits into one or more of these categories. Unlike a routine freight company, we are detail-oriented and love a good challenge. We aren’t looking for automated processes and easy jobs. We lean into everything that makes your freight “high-stakes” and get to work to ensure your experience is seamless.

When it comes to transportation for your high stakes shipments and projects, relevant experience plays a critical role in the outcomes. When you work with a company that is highly specialized in coordinating high-risk shipments, you can ensure your freight is delivered on-time, and in-tact.

If there’s a lot riding on the outcomes of your shipments, you want someone who is dedicated to such circumstances. We are the High Stakes Freight® company. We love solving difficult challenges and taking on risk on behalf of our clients. When moments matter, you don’t want a generalist. You want a specialist.

Project management for logistics is focused on planning, preparation, and organization to avoid predictable challenges.
