Thailand Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 This one I know, expect delivery soon I thought? "Departed from Sortation Center Your parcel is on the way to the last mile hub for delivery." This is the next message, a new one for me at least, what does it mean? "In Line Haul Your parcel is in the line haul to next logistics facility." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thailand Posted April 30, 2022 Author Share Posted April 30, 2022 Answered it myself-I think!???? "Line haul logistics refers to the movement of freight or goods across different modes of transport by land, air, waterway, between distant cities, ports or even warehouses. While the routes are fixed, the goods transported can vary in volume and weight, from small documents to heavy pallets." But I would have thought that would come before: "Departed from Sortation Center Your parcel is on the way to the last mile hub for delivery."?

Thailand Posted April 30, 2022 Author Share Posted April 30, 2022 Just now, Crossy said: "Last mile hub" is likely your local distribution centre. Next will be a driver (possibly a more local "hub" then a driver). Yes I know what the last mile hub is as I posted, it was the " "In Line Haul Your parcel is in the line haul to next logistics facility." that I was questioning.

Yeah, I edited when I realised, it's hot and my brain functioneth not ???? It does seem odd that the line-haul message is later, but these packages often go through several "hubs" on their, often meandering, journey.

We are in northern Bangkok, our garden mulcher started in eastern Bangkok then went to Lat Krabang and Swampy before actually making it to us. The start point was actually closer to us than Swampy The mysteries of low-cost logistics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
