Need better rates for UPS Next Day Air Red shipping of small equipment pieces, as previous 50% discount through industry association vanished and rates skyrocketed from $280 to $750+ per shipment.
Existing discount programs are unavailable or unresponsive; no clear broker or aggregated discount platform for specialized small-parcel heavy equipment shipping with overnight requirements.
