Keep Moving: The Logistics Of Transportation

Michael here. I'm the manager of a logistics company, and there's no job I'd rather do. Every day brings an adrenaline rush of seemingly impossible tasks, tight deadlines and moments of sheer panic. Moving people and goods across the country and the world is quite a challenge! As part of my job, I have come to know an awful lot about transportation. From little-known air routes to safe ways to transport live animals, I have developed a breadth of knowledge and information. New employees are often astounded by the complexity of our missions.

This blog is designed to share the best of my knowledge and hopefully help others out there with their transportation queries. I hope you enjoy moving through the entries!
