November 6, 2025
Client Success Videos

School Specialty, a leading K–12 educational products distributor, streamlined its complex shipping operations by leveraging multi-leg and LTL shipment consolidation with ShipLinx TMS. By strategically consolidating shipments and routing them through regional hubs, the team reduced freight damage, optimized carrier use, and automated load building, saving time and costs across their supply chain. Real-time reporting and centralized tracking further empowered staff and customer service teams to manage shipments proactively, transforming shipping from a manual, reactive process into a highly efficient, strategic operation.

To learn more about how ShipLinx TMS and RateLinx Freight Audit & Pay have transformed shipping and freight auditing for School Specialty, watch the video featuring Andy Houtz, Director of Transportation at School Specialty.
