Verify the carrier
Check identity, operating authority, and carrier history against multiple sources through Forza Shield.

HIGH-VALUE FREIGHT / FORZA SHIELD™
High-value freight.
Verify who moves it.
Metals, electronics, industrial products and theft-targeted cargo require more than available capacity. They require a shipment-specific security plan.
VERIFY BEFORE RELEASEBefore dispatch
Check identity, operating authority, and carrier history against multiple sources through Forza Shield.
Share declared value and commodity details early so the team can review carrier cargo coverage and shipment requirements before booking.
Agree on driver and equipment verification, approved contacts, and release instructions appropriate to the shipment.
Freight we arrange
Non-ferrous metals and finished products where declared value, equipment suitability, and pickup verification matter.
Components and finished goods that require careful carrier selection and clear shipment controls.
Shipments with handling, timing, or chain-of-custody requirements that need to be understood before tender.
For temperature-sensitive cargo, explore refrigerated freight brokerage. For ongoing programs, see managed transportation.
While your freight moves
Establish update expectations and escalation contacts before pickup, including who to reach outside business hours.
Use shipment visibility and carrier monitoring to identify changes that need attention. Route and stop expectations are addressed in advance.
If an issue arises, the team communicates what is known, coordinates next steps, and gathers relevant shipment records.
Before you book
Declared cargo value is one factor. Commodity, theft exposure, handling needs, and the consequences of disruption also shape the shipment plan. Share those details with the team.
No. Verification and shipment controls help manage risk, but they cannot eliminate it. We discuss the controls appropriate to your cargo before dispatch.
Provide origin, destination, pickup date, commodity, weight, declared value, and equipment needs. Include any pickup verification, seal, route, or delivery requirements.
Forza Shield combines carrier intelligence, identity checks, insurance and authority review, and pickup security procedures. Read the verification protocol for more detail.
