Alternative Carrier Performance: Week of May 12, 2025

Every week, Tusk Logistics tracks tens of thousands of parcel deliveries across our nationwide network of alternative carriers β€” and publishes the results so shippers have real, unfiltered data on carrier performance.

Here's what we saw last week.

By the Numbers

  • 96.2% of all shipments were delivered on time
  • 78% of all shipments were delivered within two days
  • 75% of late parcels arrived the very next day

πŸ† 100% On-Time Performance

The following carriers on the Tusk network achieved perfect on-time delivery last week:

  • Veho β€” 5th consecutive week on the list
  • Purple Mountain Solutions β€” 4th consecutive week on the list
  • Spee-Dee Delivery Service β€” 6th consecutive week on the list

πŸ’ͺ OTP Greater Than 97%

These carriers posted standout performance with on-time rates above 97%:

  • Optima Overnight β€” 6th consecutive week on the list
  • CDL Last Mile β€” First week back on the list
  • United Delivery Service β€” 4th consecutive week on the list
  • Better Trucks β€” First week back on the list

Why This Data Matters

Visibility into carrier performance isn't just a nice-to-have β€” it's the foundation of a smarter multi-carrier shipping strategy. When shippers can see exactly how every carrier is performing week over week, they can make routing decisions with confidence instead of guesswork.

That's the transparency Tusk is built to deliver. Our platform centralizes tracking, performance data, and claims management across the entire alternative carrier network β€” so your ops team always knows what's happening, no matter which carrier is moving your freight.

We'll see you next week β€” including at Home Delivery World. Stop by if you're attending.
