Fast Freight Transfer

Cross-docking is a logistics operation where incoming freight is unloaded and immediately loaded onto an outbound truck — with little or no storage time. This minimizes warehousing costs and accelerates delivery.

Our cross-dock facility in Kent, WA is strategically located near both ports, enabling rapid container devanning and reload operations.

LTL Consolidation

We consolidate less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments into full truckloads (FTL) for more efficient long-haul transport. This reduces per-unit shipping costs and improves delivery timelines.

Our consolidation services are ideal for retailers, manufacturers, and distributors who need to optimize outbound transportation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is cross-docking?

Cross-docking transfers freight directly from inbound to outbound transportation with minimal storage time, reducing costs and speeding up delivery.

How is cross-docking different from transloading?

Where is your cross-dock facility?

Our cross-dock facility is in Kent, WA — minutes from both the Port of Seattle and Port of Tacoma.

Do you offer LTL consolidation?

Yes. We consolidate LTL shipments into FTL for more efficient long-haul transport, reducing per-unit shipping costs.
