Winnipeg, MB - July 15, 2004 - Reimer Express Lines Ltd., a leading transportation solutions provider, has expanded its Time-Based service offerings for expedited or emergency shipments going to or coming from the United States and Mexico. The expanded service provides shippers with greater flexibility and more options when they need to move their time-sensitive shipments across the border, whether it moves on the ground or in the air.
Customers can choose the Time-Critical service or the Time-Advantage service. The Time-Critical service provides guaranteed solutions for critical shipments moving across the border in emergency situations, where failing to deliver is not an option. Service options cover any transit speed you require - next day, second day, third day, and up; within a specific window of time, on a precise day; or within a multi-day delivery window. This service is guaranteed to be delivered on-time, every time, or you won't receive an invoice. The new Time-Advantage service offers customers a non-guaranteed expedited service option, at an affordable price, to meet any transportation budget. Time-Advantage service offers shippers a highly reliable expedited service, as fast as next day, between Canada and the U.S. or Mexico. Both service offerings provide proactive notification to alert the customer of any potential service delays and to assist in any corrective action that may be necessary in this unlikely event.
"Our Time-Based Services expands the Reimer Express expedited transportation solutions for shipments moving across the border," said Frank Washburn, Vice President of Marketing and Pricing Administration. "Our suite of time-based services offers customers more options than ever before and provides the flexibility to deliver next-day and beyond service at any hour, day or night, with or without a guarantee."
