Logistics Services

With multiple terminals in Iowa, the Twin Cities area, and Kansas City, MO, Murphy Warehouse Company is committed to owning and operating one of the best logistics services with an asset-based fleet in North America. Murphy’s experienced drivers set the team apart from the competition. Our drivers are exceptional, and this clearly shows when they deliver. Our last touch is providing a great customer experience from start to finish.

墨菲经验丰富的机队提供卓越的客户服务和运营. Multiple teams and resources allow our fleet to:

• Flex capacity
• Pass savings on to client partners
• Deliver reliable results

Murphy’s state-of-the-art equipment and maintenance program ensures that the fleet is reliable and always ready to serve your needs. All trucks have multiple communication capabilities, like satellite tracking and on-board communications. Murphy can pinpoint your freight location all the time, every time.

墨菲公司的政策是保护环境、员工的健康和安全, its customers and the public. 该船队力求以环境可持续的方式开展所有这些活动.

Every day, 墨菲的客户将他们的货物从我们的全球最大的赌钱网运送到全国各地. 我们使用我们的资产为基础的车队墨菲卡车来帮助他们做到这一点，并提供超光速运输服务. Operating out of Minnesota’s Twin Cities and the Kansas City, Missouri area, we help you get your goods to where they need to be.

货运公司分为资产型和非资产型两种. The difference lies in whether the company has its own equipment to move your goods to their destination.

As an asset based carrier, 墨菲经营着一支卡车车队，帮助你将货物运送到中西部的目的地. 与此同时，我们通过与其他运营商合作经营一家非资产型第三方物流经纪公司. Doing so allows us to provide more flexibility to our customers, and it lets you reach more destinations with ease.

The key benefits of working with an asset based carrier include:

• Reliability
• Cost-effectiveness
• Security

当运营商控制更多的变量时，就更容易保持高标准, such as managing their own equipment and employing their own drivers. 

这些因素也使航空公司更容易有效地管理成本. At the same time, all liability for any issues is centralized in one company. And our model of managing our own fleet plus partnering with other carriers gives us the flexibility to offer customers the best of both worlds.

FTL stands for ‘Full Truck Load.顾名思义，它包括运送足够的货物来填满一辆卡车的整个货物区. This is in contrast to LTL or ‘Less Than Truck Load,’ which means that your goods only fill up part of the cargo area, so you share the space with other shippers.

The main benefit of shipping FTL is that your goods go directly to their destination since you are the only one using the cargo area. As such, they will arrive more quickly at their intended destination. 对这种简单直接的选择的渴望是我们在墨菲提供超光速传输的原因.

Get help solving your biggest logistics challenges with customized rail freight transport services from Murphy. With strong partners in rail logistics, we offer a wide range of transload services at economical rates.

铁路货运是许多美国企业理想的运输解决方案. With a shortage of truck drivers plaguing the supply chain industry, intermodal transport has become increasingly attractive. Additionally, it offers reduced costs due to economies of scale, competitive shipping times, and efficient distribution.

At Murphy, we connect products to destinations across North America by leveraging our relationships in the rail freight industry, whether for long-haul or drayage. 我们与所有服务于上中西部地区的一级航空公司直接合作, including Burlington Northern Santa Fe, Union Pacific, Canadian National, and Canadian Pacific. 我们还与进步铁路地区短线铁路建立了牢固的关系, making us the second-largest private rail shipper in the region.

Murphy’s logistics network gives us a commanding position in the market. Our rail partners have direct access to Murphy’s rail storage facilities through dedicated rail line spurs that keep freight costs low for our customers.

Better Safety, Lower Insurance Premiums – Rail freight transport reduces many operational risks associated with long-distance freight like theft, accidents, cost fluctuations, traffic jams, truck driver shortages, and more. Insurance premiums on rail logistics are considerably lower than truck freight.

Environment Friendly –  Rail logistics is greener than truck freight due to fewer stops and high volume transport. On average, intermodal rail is 3-4 times more fuel-efficient than trucks.
Complex Cargo Needs – Industrial products with customized logistics needs can be transported over short distances with our drayage services or long-distance through rail freight. 我们也为高价值产品提供专业的索具和安装服务.

Broad Range of Services: Our expertise includes the entire spectrum of post-production distribution. We specialize in rail freight transport, customized storage, piggyback containers (combined cargo), fulfillment services, packaging, rail transload, quality control, freight audit, cross-docking, customs support, last-mile delivery, precision rigging, and postponement services.

Flexible Scaling During Peaks: Our rail freight transport services are well-positioned to handle high volume SKUs and simplify complex supply chains that many 3PLs cannot control. 我们还为日常多式联运提供不同的低SKU型号.

Complete Control Over Your Supply Chain: We maintain firm control over your products throughout the supply chain. Rail transloading and distribution are carried out by in-house staff to ensure damage-free freight and unweathered storage through our cross-country network of partners.

Integrated Network: Over the last 100 years, 我们已经建立了一个合作伙伴网络，完成了整个物流需求. 我们的物流合作伙伴给了我们信心，让我们不断为客户迎接新的挑战.
