Price was the best part. They gave steady, volume-friendly rates for our lanes and the invoices actually matched the quotes, which saved me headaches. I run 30 trucks on the West Coast and after a year with them the fees felt fair enough that I didn’t bother shopping around - you might shave a buck here or there elsewhere, but not worth the hassle.
I've used Yusen Logistics for five years. With twelve years managing a 55-truck fleet in the Southeast, the feature that stood out was their portal's real-time ETA updates and automatic push alerts; those live adjustments let us cancel unnecessary deadhead miles and reschedule drivers before they faced long waiting times at terminals. The operational impact was tangible - weekly driver idle hours dropped and dispatching became noticeably more predictable.
Bottom line: Yusen pulled a last-minute miracle and got a transmission module to our Indiana plant overnight when our vendor missed the cut-off. I called them at 7pm, they rebooked an air uplift, arranged a local pickup, and the dispatcer stayed on the line updating me - saved us from a shudown. I've run my own trucks in the Midwest for 12 years, and this kind of follow-through is rare, so I'll be calling them again.
