We use StarShip to handle our hazardous materials shipments. At the time we signed up they were one of the only one that were able to handle hazardous materials shipments. It was able to integrate with Acumatica but needed a lot of setup. We also use it fo rate shopping so customer service can give customers the best rate options.
