FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is cross-docking?

Cross-docking is the transfer of freight from inbound transportation to outbound transportation with little or no long-term storage between the two movements.

What is the difference between cross-docking and warehousing?

Warehousing is primarily designed to hold inventory until it is needed.

Cross-docking is primarily designed to move freight through a facility toward another destination.

Some shipments may require temporary staging during the cross-docking process, but storage is not the primary purpose of the operation.

Can you transfer freight from one trailer to another?

Yes, trailer-to-trailer freight transfer is one of the applications of cross-docking, subject to the freight type, equipment and facility capabilities.

Can you consolidate several shipments into one load?

Yes. Compatible shipments can be received, organized and combined into an outbound load based on customer instructions and transportation requirements.

Can you rebuild damaged or shifted pallets?

Depending on the condition and type of freight, we may be able to re-stack, re-palletize or rewrap the shipment so that it can continue moving.

Send us photos whenever possible so the requirement can be reviewed before arrival.

Do you provide storage?

Our primary services are cross-docking, consolidation and freight handling rather than conventional long-term warehousing.

Limited staging associated with a cross-dock or consolidation job may be available depending on the shipment.

How much does cross-docking cost?

Pricing depends on factors such as freight quantity, equipment type, number of pallets or pieces, labour requirements, handling complexity and timing.
