Who We Are

Our freight guides are written and edited by

Freightera Logistics’ content team, which brings decades of combined experience in business, the environment, technology, and freight transportation, with a focus on LTL, FTL, lower-emissions, and cross-border shipping.

Each article is reviewed by senior leadership to ensure the advice is practical and the details reflect how shipping work in the real world. Our goal is simple: to provide the information you need to plan shipments confidently and avoid surprises.

Editorial Standards

We write in plain English and focus on actionable insights shippers can use today. Every piece undergoes drafting, editing, and senior review before publication.
Accuracy matters. We check facts against neutral, reputable sources and update content when policies or processes change.

Review & Fact-Checking

Content is drafted by the writer, edited for clarity and structure, and then reviewed by a freight shipping specialist or a senior team member. When a topic touches compliance, customs, or emerging technology, we include an additional subject-matter review.

If new information affects a live guide, we revise the page promptly to ensure readers always have the latest and most accurate version.

Our Sourcing Policy

We cite neutral, reputable sources whenever they add value.
We avoid referencing competitors (brokers, carriers, or similar services). Instead, we draw from independent trade publications, analyst research, and government or standards bodies. For time-sensitive claims, we note the date and update the page if facts change.
