ProShip customers can now utilize Tusk Logistics for their expansive network of regional carriers
In today’s fast-paced shipping landscape, efficiency and flexibility are critical for businesses to stay competitive and meet rising customer expectations. Alternative carriers have long offered 30-50% lower rates than national carriers like UPS and FedEx, but the complexity of managing multiple carrier relationships has kept many shippers from taking full advantage.
The integration of Tusk Logistics, a national network of top regional parcel carriers, with ProShip, the leader in automated multi-carrier shipping software, is driving shipping success. This partnership, available to both current and future ProShip customers, offers the efficiency and cost savings that today’s shippers need.
Tusk Logistics provides seamless access to a network of trusted regional carriers through a single API, pre-negotiated rates, centralized support across carriers, and end-to-end tracking. Now, with ProShip’s integration, shippers can unlock these benefits effortlessly – optimizing their carrier mix, reducing costs, and improving last-mile delivery.
If you’re a 3PL or brand, alternative carriers are one of the fastest and most effective ways to add margin to your business, but they need to seamlessly integrate with your core shipping software and workflows. We’re super excited to launch our partnership with ProShip, the leader in automated multi-carrier shipping software. Now you can manage all of your national and alternative carriers in a super streamlined way to drive down shipping costs.

Simplifying Alternative Carrier Adoption with Tusk
Switching to alternative carriers isn’t always simple and can come with a laundry list of challenges, including:
- Evaluating carrier rates and coverage
- Negotiating competitive pricing
- Managing complex technical integrations
- Adapting to different billing and invoicing formats
- Handling multiple tracking codes and frequencies
- Coordinating new pickups and claims processes
- Configuring rate shopping for optimal routing
- Overcoming geographic limitations through zone skipping
- And more…
However, when done efficiently, incorporating alternative carriers can unlock significant cost savings. Tusk simplifies this process by consolidating multiple top-performing regional carriers into a single, seamless solution. By integrating with ProShip, shippers can now access alternative carrier labels, tracking, and rates without the complexity of managing multiple direct relationships. This allows for a smarter, more flexible shipping strategy.
