We are asking our agents to RESPOND WITHIN ONE HOUR of receipt of a shipment offer from NFC or NVL International. Unfortunately, we may have to move on to another agent if we do not hear from you within that time.
Please continue to send your domestic and international blackouts to blackouts@nationalforwarding.com so that we can closely monitor shipment offers.
In addition, as a reminder date changes directly between the customer and agent are prohibited. Please see our memo dated 17 February 2023 for details.
If you have any questions on domestic shipments, email NFC Operations at nfcoperations@nationalforwarding.com. For international shipments, email INTLmilitary@nationalvanlines.com.
