Preferred Carrier Routing

In an effort to improve and maintain transportation service, cost, and Ace's high standard of service we will continue to enforce the Ace Preferred Carrier Routing Policy. Please refer to the Ace Routing Guide / Preferred Carrier Listing for detailed routing instructions which apply to all shipments to the Ace Retail Support Centers and Crossdock facilities.

Please be aware that Ace requires both PREPAID and COLLECT shipments be routed in accordance with our Routing Guide. We have worked hard to bring together this group of flexible and reliable Preferred Carriers that have proven to satisfy our transportation needs. We must rely on your company's support of this program to ensure that we maintain the most efficient throughput of your product. Your cooperation can also result in sales, service level and inventory turn increases.

Failure to follow these specific routings may cause receiving delays, untimely payment of invoices and excess transportation costs. Also, a per occurrence fine of $75 will be assessed and maintained without exception for non-compliance to this policy.

As you can see, Ace is very serious about our Preferred Carrier Program and we strongly encourage your company's active participation. We welcome your comments and questions, and will continue to work closely with our vendor-partners and Preferred Carriers to further improve the program. Please feel free to contact Carey Skoglund, National Logistics Manager at 630-990-6590.
