Frequently asked

Warehousing & Transloading questions

What is transloading?

Transloading transfers cargo from one transportation mode or equipment type to another—for example, unloading an ocean container and reloading the freight into a dry van trailer.

What is the difference between cross-docking and storage?

Cross-docking moves freight from inbound to outbound equipment with little or no storage. Warehousing holds freight for a longer period and usually includes inventory control and recurring storage charges.

What details are needed for a warehouse handling quote?

Provide the commodity, packaging, piece or pallet count, dimensions, total weight, handling method, storage duration, inbound equipment and outbound requirements.
