Services
In tough times, cost is key. Extra costs hidden in your inbound shipments act as a drag on your efficiency and margins. Take control of your inbound freight and keep those profits where they belong - in your business. Our diagnostic unbundles product and freight pricing to reveal how much you're paying for materials and how much for shipping.
Gain control without drowning in the daily detail required to manage the transport of purchased inputs. Helix gives you control with an inbound logistics program customized to your needs. At the same time reduce costs by leveraging a logistics network that runs $1B in transportation yearly across multiple transportation modes and equipment types.
Helix leverages RR Donnelley's transportation volume to provide advantaged freight purchasing and network efficiencies. We draw on this vast network to select the optimal carrier matched to your needs on a lane-by-lane basis, across North America and across all modes. Because carrier performance is not consistent across broad geographies, our multi-carrier structure enables more reliable and efficient operations.
Helix reviews track/trace data throughout the day to verify pick-ups, in-transit progress and deliveries. In instances where carrier EDI tracing updates are delayed, Helix contacts the carrier to obtain disposition and update shipment status. Helix uses software-based decision support for daily optimization.

Quality 3PL companies like Helix are hard to come by! Helix Ops. personnel are professional and they always give the carrier accurate/ straight forward information prior to booking their loads which I love. I enjoy working with Jim Evans and Donna Russo on a daily basis.

I've had the pleasure of working with Helix for over a decade now. I have always found them to be one of our most anticipatory, forward thinking customers. No nonsense, straight ahead, flexible, and professional. Jim Evans is a seasoned freight veteran who understands his customers AND his carriers needs. A rare combination in today's freight market. I highly recommend these guys.

I have been working with Jim Evans at Helix exclusively for the last nine years plus. Have NEVER had ANY problems what so ever!! He goes above and beyond 100% !! I have NEVER worked with a more professional broker! He works very hard with me on both ends of the spectrum and has never once disappointed!!! Helix has always treated us right and paid quickly on loads and detention. I RARELY use any other broker and it's going to stay that way if at all possible!!!

I have been working with Donna Russo at Helix Logistics for over 8 years. Donna is so nice to work with. I can always count on her no matter what time of day or night. Communication is so important in this industry and Donna and Helix Logistics is the best when it comes to communication. Helix really works with your needs and goes above and beyond to help get you what you need. They make you feel like you are a part of their team. I hope to have a long working relationship with Donna and the rest of Helix Logistics.

Helix is one of the best companies to work with. They are consistent and very professional. My contact Anthony Doory is always responsive and he makes doing business with Helix a very enjoyable experience. Whenever there is detention he pays it right on the spot. His honesty and integrity reflects on Helix as a whole.
