Moving is a hassle. Few like it because of the constant frustrations that can pop up.

On the Move works to make sure a rental truck isn’t another thing causing a headache during the moving process. Its trucks are specially designed for easy transport of cargo, with subtle touches like the wheel well not extending into the back portion of the truck, making for a more pleasant experience.

And the ramp up the truck won’t be stolen – like many were during the recession when they caught the eye of desperate scrap metal resellers – or misplaced thanks to an extended rear door that also allows for more real estate for marketing or advertising messages.

“My grandpa thought of the solution. He thought, ‘Well, let’s cover the ramp up.’ He was able to extend the door over the ramp and (box truck partner) Unicell was able to comply with that and make it work for us,” said On the Move Marketing Director CJ Stratte, whose grandfather founded the company after years of experience with Ford.

While the trucks’ graphics pop thanks to a lack of exterior rivets or other things that could mar the wrap, they’re also designed with efficiency in mind.

“Our trucks are aerodynamic and designed this way, because it makes it more fuel efficient,” Stratte said. “(This design) is actually 20% more fuel efficient for these trucks. It’s a little bit more economical.”

On The Move’s rental solutions also serve realtors, who can offer them to movers to provide these benefits – and advertise their services.

In addition to being friendly on the wallet, the trucks also are designed to be easier to drive, with extra mirrors to aid drivers who may be more used to piloting a sedan or an SUV than a 15-foot machine with all their possessions inside.

That, along with many of the other features setting On the Move apart, provide movers peace of mind in a stressful time.

Wakeo's new AI tool grades carriers on delivery record before freight tenders

Wakeo's new AI tool grades carriers on delivery record before freight tenders

Wakeo launched Supply Chain Advisor on November 3, 2026. The AI tool recommends the best routes and transport options for each flow, based on total cost and performance, to prepare freight tenders and business reviews. Its value depends on tracked data, and only 38% of companies in a GS1 US survey integrate supply chain data centrally in real time.

  • 01A freight tender can now be scored on how each carrier actually performed on a shipper's own lanes, with cost, reliability, transit time, disruption exposure and CO2 weighted by the buyer.
  • 02Shippers whose shipments are already tracked end to end get the most from performance-based tendering; for lanes with thin history, market benchmarks carry more of the recommendation.
  • 03Before the next tender, ask which lanes are scored on your own shipments and which rely on market data alone, because that split decides how much to trust each ranking.

CarParts.com targets 300,000 packages a year on its own last-mile network

CarParts.com targets 300,000 packages a year on its own last-mile network

CarParts.com's in-house delivery network handled more than 6,000 packages in the quarter ended Oct. 3, about double the prior quarter. The target is 300,000 a year, about 5% of outbound volume, focused on bulky parts that draw carrier surcharges. Three of four distribution centers run next-day delivery, and Chicago's is slated to launch in Q4.

  • 01CarParts.com is sizing its private network to the parcels that cost the most to hand to a national carrier, about 5% of outbound volume, which turns insourcing into a question of which parcels to pull first rather than whether to run a fleet.
  • 02The network delivered more than 6,000 packages in Q3, roughly double Q2, against a medium-term target of 300,000 a year, which suggests the ramp still has a long way to go.
  • 03Shippers with no fleet still have a lever: CarParts.com credited its Q3 freight savings to carrier diversification alongside last-mile work, and the diversification half is available to anyone with carrier invoices.

Mexico's electric port cranes need contracts that say who pays when the power drops

Mexico's electric port cranes need contracts that say who pays when the power drops

Mexican terminals including APM Terminals Lázaro Cárdenas, Hutchison Ports TIMSA and Contecon Manzanillo are buying electric cranes. Short outages can mean hours of restart. Contracts should separate grid failures, installation faults and equipment defects, and assign permit delays, before the equipment is purchased.

  • 01At an electric terminal, the outage sets off the loss, but the restart decides how big it gets: Contecon Manzanillo's CEO says minutes without power can take hours to recover from.
  • 02A stopped crane has three possible causes: the grid, the terminal's own electrical installation or the equipment itself. Contracts that do not name all three leave the loss to be argued after it happens.
  • 03Grid connection is part of the purchase decision: under Mexico's Electricity Sector Regulation, an applicant can be asked to fund connection works whose cost regulated tariffs do not recover.
