[All CLT Questions]

Which of the following statements is an example of ways to reduce the cost of transportation?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

CLT emphasizes that transportation cost is reduced by increasing load utilization and reducing the number of shipments. Shipment consolidation means combining smaller shipments into full loads---lower per-unit cost, fewer trips, better utilization of equipment. Options A/B/C all tend to raise handling/shipping costs; D is the correct cost-saving strategy.

A doesn't make sense, that just adds costs.

Consolidation definitely seems like the best option here, but I wonder if the other choices could have hidden benefits we didn't discuss.

I feel like increasing the number of parcels could be beneficial, but it might depend on the context.

I remember a practice question about transportation costs, and I think increasing the number of pickups could actually raise costs instead of lowering them.

I think increasing the consolidation of shipments might help reduce costs, but I'm not entirely sure how that works in practice.
