("Roadrunner" or the "company") (NYSE: RRTS), has partnered with MyCarrierTMS to offer customers a free transportation management system (TMS) called RapidShip. Roadrunner Freight customers using RapidShip can automate manual shipping processes, improve transportation reporting and store documents.
