HANOVER, MA, May 14, 2011 (Press-News.org) G-Force Shipping, a non-asset based, third-party logistics provider based in Hanover, MA, salutes those carriers with the 2011 "Ship Shape" awards.
"In working with more than 80 carriers, we hear a number of tremendous stories from customers about how so many of the carriers they work with do a fantastic job," said Gordie Macfarlane, president of G-Force Shipping. "With the Ship Shape awards, manufacturers, distributors, dealers and the general public have the opportunity to do a little more than say thank you for the great work these carriers do."
The Ship Shape awards honor carriers in three separate categories:
Best Carrier- Self explanatory, the Best Carrier goes to the freight company who performed the best over the past calendar year, 2010. Areas of consideration: price, transit time, condition of delivery, customer service.
Most Dependable - This goes to the carrier who consistently meets transit times with the least amount of claims.
Shipper's Shipper - This honor goes to the carrier who, on one particular occasion, went above and beyond the call to ensure the safe and on time arrival of a shipment. This is a chance for you to tell us your best stories!
Manufacturers, dealers, distributors and the general public can nominate a carrier by e-mailing your nomination to info@gforceship.com. Employees of nominated carriers are not eligible to vote.
As part of the nomination form, voters can contribute a brief, 250-word testimonial on behalf of the carrier. The most compelling testimonial, as determined by G-Force customer representatives, will win a $100 credit towards their next shipment using G-Force.
The winners will be selected on July 1, 2011 and announced on http://www.gforceship.com.

There's no long-term commitment. Access to a free online account or a toll-free number is all G-Force customers need.
