Haul-away logistics is at a strategic tipping point. As vehicle distribution networks grow more complex with BEV-specific handling, multi-node routing, and stricter OEM compliance, regional carriers face mounting pressure to deliver operational precision, compliance traceability, and cost transparency, none of which fragmented systems can support.
Despite a USD 150 billion+ vehicle logistics market, more than 45% of operators still plan routes and quotes on spreadsheets, leading to 3–5% annual margin leakage and escalating risk. This whitepaper explores the core limitations of traditional haul-away workflows and outlines what a modern logistics system must do differently, from centralized data control and automated route logic to dynamic costing and compliance traceability.
For logistics leaders facing higher compliance thresholds and thinner margins, this paper provides a clear decision framework:
