Less than Truckload shipping company in Oklahoma City, OK

Statistics from the US Department of Transportation show more than 700,000 registered motor carriers are traversing our highways and roads. These trucks, which can be packed with everything from bricks and stone to dog food and grocery items, keep thousands of American businesses afloat. For business owners shipping these products across the country, precise planning and high-level tracking are required. But with increasing rates and a wide range of delays to overcome, overseeing a shipment of LTL freight is easier said than done.

ShippingThe Basics of LTL Freight Shipping

In the freight industry, LTL stands for "less-than-truckload." It is a widely-used method of transportation for smaller shipments that don't require the space of a full truckload. In an LTL shipment, several customers' loads are placed onto one truck, which helps reduce how much it costs to ship those products.

In fact, if your freight doesn't fill an entire trailer but weighs 150-15,000 lbs., LTL freight shipping in Oklahoma City, OK, may be the most efficient, cost-conscious way to transport your products. That's because, in an LTL setup, you're only paying for the space your freight takes up. LTL shipping companies like RelyEx optimize LTL loads by choosing the most efficient routes at the best rates so your cargo gets to where it needs to go without any issues.

Business owners often choose LTL freight services in the following circumstances:

  • When freight is dense, large, or bulky
  • Freight exceeds a weight of 150 pounds
  • Crated or palletized shipments
  • When freight passes through distribution centers and local terminals
  • When a cost-effective freight solution is needed
  • When an entire tractor-trailer isn't needed for shipments

When it comes to LTL delivery options, there are a lot to choose from. But not every LTL broker is created equally. Some LTL companies do not have the tools or technology to track your shipments and optimize your routes. In worst-case scenarios, they may not be insured or reliable. If you're looking for an experienced LTL carrier that exceeds expectations with time-tested strategies and innovative technologies, look no further than RelyEx.

Popular Methods of Shipping LTL Freight in Oklahoma City, OK

Depending on where and how often you ship LTL freight, your broker may choose a regional or national LTL carrier. Regional carriers often service a group of states within a region. National carriers have a larger footprint and can often eliminate the need to use several carriers for your shipments. RelyEx has the infrastructure and strategies for all of your LTL shipping - contact our office today to learn more about your options.

Though regional and national carriers are different, they often use similar models for shipping. Two of the most popular types of shipping methods include hub and spoke distribution and LTL consolidation.

 LTL Shipping Partner Oklahoma City, OK

What is Hub and Spoke LTL Freight Shipping?

In this traditional model, your shipments go through a network of warehouses, terminals, and hub facilities where your products are grouped with other shipments. Your freight then travels to local "spokes" (or terminals), where they are delivered. If you need to ship freight over short distances, this model may be a good choice to consider.

Some common benefits of the hub and spoke model include:

  • Economical and efficient
  • Improved pickup times
  • More regular delivery times
  • More visibility and easy tracking

 No-Cost LTL Freight Oklahoma City, OK

What is Consolidated LTL Freight Shipping?

LTL consolidated shipping is a model where LTL carriers bring several shipments from different shippers to a final destination. Instead of using hubs and spokes along the shipping route to bundle freight and move cargo, LTL consolidation works by taking multiple shipments and turning them into a single truckload. This truck then makes multiple stops, where your products are delivered.

Some of the most common benefits of LTL consolidation include:

  • Less freight handling
  • Good for fragile or large freight
  • Fewer claims
  • Less cargo damage
  • Cost-effective pricing

At RelyEx, our goal is to expertly manage the movement of your freight so you can focus on your core business. With more than 20 years of combined experience with LTL freight shipping in Oklahoma City, OK, our team can select the most efficient and cost-effective model for your needs.

The OKC Thunder have an impressive Draft Day Streak going

The Oklahoma City Thunder own the 12th overall pick after the 2023 NBA Draft Lottery played out in Chicago during the NBA Draft Combine. While they did not win the Victor Wembanyama sweepstakes, the OKC Thunder still have flexibility come draft night.

The OKC Thunder owns the 12th, 34th, and 50th NBA Draft Picks in the 2023 NBA Draft. Thanks to their treasure chest of assets, they can still climb up the board with a draft day trade. Sam Presti is no stranger to this idea.

Heading into the 2023 NBA Draft, the OKC Thunder have an impressive draft day streak intact that should continue.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have made at least one trade on the day of the NBA Draft since 2019. In that draft, Sam Presti moved down the board to better position himself to select New Balance Intern Darius Bazley. Then, in 2020, Sam Presti used a trade to ensure he got his guy, Aleksej Pokusevski, with the 16th overall pick after originally being slotted for 21st. 2021 Presti consolidated second-round picks to grab Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, who seemed to have first-round talent out of the University of Villanova. Finally, last year, the OKC Thunder General Manager traded three future first-round picks to acquire Ousmane Dieng with the 11th pick, who Presti had circled since Dieng was 16 years old.

Sam Presti has quite the streak of Draft Day trades:2019: Traded down for Darius Bazley2020: Traded up for Aleksej Pokusevski2021: Traded up for Jeremiah Robinson-Earl2022: Traded back into the first round for Ousmane DiengI’d be shocked if that streak doesn’t continue.

— Rylan Stiles (@Rylan_Stiles) May 17, 2023

The Oklahoma City Thunder settling in at pick 12, with four 2024 NBA Draft picks at their disposal, does not seem likely. I would imagine the OKC Thunder will take some of the 2024 picks, or future assets, to navigate their way up the board.

To walk away with a name like Jarace Walker, Taylor Hendricks, or even Gradey Dick would help the Thunder continue to build out their core.

Do you expect Sam Presti to make a draft day trade?

The Los Angeles Dodgers selected the contract of Dylan Covey and optioned Justin Bruihl to Triple-A Oklahoma City prior to their series finale against the Minnesota Twins. To make room for Covey on the 40-man roster, Jimmy Nelson was transferred to the 60-day injured list.

Bruihl heads to the Minor Leagues after appearing in three consecutive games for the Dodgers. The left-hander made 16 pitches on Monday, 20 on Tuesday, and 28 on Wednesday, over a combined four innings.

The 25-year-old has appeared in nine games for the Dodgers, going 1-0 with a 2.53 ERA, 2.54 FIP, 0.94 WHIP and 12 strikeouts in 10.2 innings. Although he was pitching well, the Dodgers needed to add an arm to their bullpen, and this move gives Bruihl some time to rest.

“Can’t say enough about him, how he’s handled the elevator and not let it affect performance,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. “He just pitched three in a row, I think there’s life to the ball now, there’s a confidence there, there’s an edginess. We’re lucky to have him. Very lucky to have him.”

With Oklahoma City so far this year, Bruihl is 3-0 and thrown eight scoreless innings over six games. He also made an appearance for Single-A Rancho Cucamonga, completing a perfect inning.

Dodgers get Dylan Covey back in Majors

Covey spent parts of four seasons with the Chicago White Sox and Boston Red Sox, posting a combined 6.57 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 5.48 FIP across 264.1 innings during that span.

The right-hander hasn’t pitched in the Majors since the 2020 season, and signed a Minor League contract with the Dodgers during the offseason.

Covey arrived in Los Angeles on Tuesday as part of the Dodgers’ taxi squad, and Roberts said the plan would be to potentially activate him on Wednesday, depending on the bullpen usage.

The 31-year-old has thrown 32 innings with OKC this season, posting a 4.22 ERA, 5.20 FIP, 1.44 WHIP, 7.88 strikeouts per nine and 5.06 walks per nine.

OKC Thunder gets 12th pick in NBA Draft Lottery, Spurs win Victor Wembanyama sweepstakes

The Thunder had a good idea of where its draft pick would land, but now it’s official.

As revealed Tuesday night in the NBA Draft Lottery, the Thunder will pick 12th in the June 22 NBA Draft at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. Oklahoma City had an 85.2% chance to land at No. 12, so the night went as expected for the Thunder.

OKC had an 8% chance to jump into the top-four and just a 1.7% chance to land the No. 1 pick, which went to the Spurs. Perhaps a franchise-altering result for San Antonio, which could make its pick Tuesday night. French phenom Victor Wembanyama is the no-doubt No. 1.

Following the Spurs, the Hornets will pick second, Trail Blazers will go third and Rockets fourth.

After the top four, the rest of the lottery went Pistons, Magic, Pacers, Wizards, Jazz, Mavericks, Magic, Thunder, Raptors and Pelicans.

More:Tramel: OKC Thunder GM Sam Presti still won't take shortcuts, despite ticking clock

Representing the Thunder on stage at the lottery in Chicago was Nick Collison, who, fittingly enough, was the No. 12 pick back in 2003.

Collison’s jersey now hangs in the Paycom Center rafters.

The No. 12 pick has been a boon for the Thunder. Guard Jalen Williams, the Rookie of the Year runner-up, was the 12th pick a year ago. The Thunder drafted center Steven Adams with the 12th pick in the 2013 draft.

Of course the Thunder has the assets to trade up from No. 12. Not even its bajillion future first-rounders would be enough to trade up to No. 1, but this draft is expected to be fluid after the first three picks: Wembanyama, Scoot Henderson and Brandon Miller being the consensus top trio of prospects.

The Thunder only has one first-round pick this year. Next summer, OKC has a whopping four first-rounders.

The Thunder, as we found out Tuesday night, owns the No. 12 pick in the 2023 NBA Draft.

Now what?

Well, the June 22 draft is only 36 days away, which means a month-plus of mock drafts, agenda-driven rumors and competing commentary about players that none of us can truly project. Well, excluding Victor Wembanyama.

We’ll have our own scouting reports and player breakdowns (see disclaimer above), but let’s take a second to digest what the Tuesday night lottery meant for the Thunder.

Here's where the Thunder are slated to select from in next month's draft:

More: For OKC Thunder, the No. 12 pick in NBA Draft has worked out just fine in the past

2023 OKC Thunder draft picks

No. 12: OKC’s lone first-rounder landed in the expected spot.

No. 37: The Thunder got this pick from Washington, via New Orleans, in the Steven Adams trade.

No. 50: OKC got this pick from Boston in the Mike Muscala trade. The Thunder would’ve had the 35th pick instead of the 50th pick had the Rockets finished higher than the Spurs in the lottery (lot of moving parts here).

More: How OKC Thunder's Tre Mann, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl are approaching pivotal third NBA season

Trading up?

Thunder general manager Sam Presti has the goods to trade up, especially with four more first-round picks next year — in what many see as a weak draft class.

Portland is in an interesting spot at No. 3. Franchise icon Damian Lillard wants to win, and few rookies are ready to do that. The Trail Blazers will demand win-now pieces for the No. 3 pick, and it’s hard to see the Thunder being a suitor. Unless OKC is willing to include Josh Giddey or Jalen Williams — which seems unlikely — then Portland is probably hanging up the phone. OKC doesn't have the right players for Portland.

Washington at No. 8? Who knows. The new front office might be in asset accumulation mode. Would the No. 12 pick and two first-round picks next year be enough? It depends on which picks, among a myriad of other factors.

Utah has the No. 9 pick. What if OKC offered No. 12, and the 2024 Jazz pick (top-10 protected) back to Utah? Makes sense, at least.

And then there’s Dallas at No. 10. The Mavericks are in desperation mode to build a winning team around Luka Doncic. The 10th pick probably won’t help them in the short term. Expect Dallas to shop this pick.

Prospects to watch at No. 12

Of course the Thunder might not need to trade up depending on what its draft board looks like and the intel it has on other teams.

In the coming weeks we’ll have more on our favorite prospects and how they fit with the Thunder, but for now, here’s who the draft experts have mocked to OKC at No. 12.

ESPN: Cason Wallace, Kentucky — A 6-4 guard with a defense-first game. Shot 35% from 3-point range. Has some injury concerns.

The Ringer and The Athletic: Leonard Miller, G League Ignite — Checks a lot of Thunder boxes. A raw, 6-foot-10 forward who can do a little of everything. And he’s Canadian.

NBAdraft.net: Jarace Walker, Houston — A little short for a power forward at 6-foot-7, but he’s built like Lu Dort. Walker is an exceptional defender and a capable playmaker offensively.
