100 Years

100 years in business! Buehler Companies is celebrating 100 years this year in the moving and storage business. It’s pretty amazing to be able to say that. From moving people in 1912 back and forth to the airport when the great gold rush began, to today. We are glad to be able to tell everyone that even now, we believe in a good quality move at a reasonable price. We have gone through our ups and downs with the economy, but still have pulled through fast and strong. Buehler Companies is very proud of our team and all of the effort that they have exerted to making Buehler one of the most successful moving businesses in Colorado. Without the hard work and dedication of our team, we wouldn’t be here today. Thank you for helping our success and may we continue to thrive for yet another 100 years.

Benefits of LTL Service

When you first opened up for business, you could easily get away with using the post office, or one of the parcel carrier services for your shipping needs. Now that your business has grown, it is time for your means of freight shipping to do the same. This means that you need to start taking a look at the benefits of using a logistics service.

When you have grown your business to ship large orders from your warehouse or production facility, but aren’t yet (or have no plans to start…) running your own truck division to freight your product to your customers distribution facilities around the country, you will be faced with many options from many sources.

Buehler logistics has a variety of suggestions to help your company control its freight costs. From handling your warehousing, order fulfillment and shipping, as well as utilizing carrier partners that offer expedited, truckload or less than truck load services.

Whenever you are dealing with any type of freight shipping, there are going to be two terms that you hear a great deal. FTL and LTL. FTL stands for full truck load. This term is used when you have enough of one shipment to fill an entire trailer, or close enough to it. It doesn’t always mean that you have enough “pieces” or “boxes” to fill up a truck; it can also be used to describe the weight of the shipment. Most shipments weighing over 20,000 pounds are usually described as being a full truck load (FTL) shipment. This also means that you have enough product or weight to completely hire it from the trucking company with no other product from other companies on it. LTL or Less than Truckload is the shipping option that most small to medium sized manufacturers use. This term is used when you “rent” or “occupy” only a small portion of an entire truckload, with the remainder of the trailer divvied up amongst other companies who are shipping to a destination located close to where your shipment is going. LTL shipments are usually made up of 20,000 pounds and under or 10 pallets or less.

There are many advantages to shipping LTL. The biggest advantage is the savings it can bring to your company and your customers. Because you only have a portion of the trailer, and because the trucking company will make more money on the entire truck, the trucking company can afford to reduce the overall costs for each company shipping on the truck. The only advantage of utilizing Full Truckload service versus Less than Truckload service is if you have a very specialized order, requiring guaranteed delivery times, white glove handling or zero hour expediting. This way you have control over the entire truck, because you have purchased the entire truck.

Buehler Logistics Division has specialists dedicated to finding the most effective way to ship your goods. All options and services will be presented to you and we listen to your needs to determine the best way to ship your products.

Buehler Night Before Christmas

‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through Buehler’s house

not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

The boxes were stacked in the warehouse with care,

In hopes that the delivery truck, soon would be there;

The vaults were all loaded and snug into place,

and a forklift was moving a pallet with grace;

A driver stood tall, securing a strap,

While the dispatcher inside, was printing a map.

When out in the parking lot there arose such a clatter,

Stuart sprang from his office to see what was the matter.

Away to the window, he flew like a flash,

tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

There were tire tracks on the breast of the new-fallen snow

They gave luster of mid-day to the movers below,

When, what to his wondering eyes should appear,

but a semi tractor trailer carrying eight tiny reindeer,

With a little old driver, so lively and quick,

he knew in that moment that it must be St. Nick.

All proud of his class A License, he sang

and he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name;

“Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer! Now, Prancer and Vixen!

On, Comet! On, Cupid! On, Donder and Blitzen!

To the top of the mountains! To the top of the wall!

This tractor trailer can carry it all!

Local, Interstate or however we fly,

Taking a truck is easier than using the sky!”

So driving to Buehler, the semi they used,

With a truck full of toys, reindeer and St. Nicolas too.

And then, in a twinkling, Stuart heard on the road,

tires squealing and spinning as the great big truck slowed.

As he drew in his head and was turning around,

Into the front doors of Buehler, St. Nicholas came with a bound.

He was dressed all in blue, from his head to his heel.

And his uniform stated “Buehler Companies” for real!

A bundle of cartons he carried in on his back,

And he looked like a mover without his red sack.

His eyes – how they twinkled! His dimples how merry!

His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!

His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,

And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow;

The stump of a pen he held in his teeth really tight,

As he handed out papers “Please sign here on the right”

He had a broad face and a little round belly,

that shook, when he laughed like a bowlful of jelly.

He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,

And Stuart laughed when he saw him, in spite of himself;

A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,

Soon gave Stuart to know that he had no claims to dread;

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,

and he unloaded that trailer, then turned with a jerk,

and placing his finger to tap the side of his head,

he shook Stuarts hand “thanks for the truck” he said

He sprang to his semi, his team asleep in the rear,

he pressed on the gas and they woke up with fear.

But we heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight…

“Happy Christmas to Buehler, and to all a good-night”

Happy Holidays!

Buehler Companies hopes that all of your families have a wonderful holiday this year.
