Transloading imported containers
Transloading moves cargo from an international ocean container into domestic trailers, pallets or other equipment. It can reduce container detention exposure and make inland distribution more flexible.
Cross-docking
Cross-docking minimizes dwell time by transferring freight from inbound equipment to outbound equipment with little or no storage. It works best when appointments, labels and outbound routing are already planned.
Short-term storage and distribution
For inventory that cannot move immediately, short-term storage can bridge the gap between port availability and customer delivery windows. Ask about receiving rules, pallet fees, pick fees and outbound appointment charges.
Quote inputs
Include container or pallet count, commodity, weight, expected arrival date, required services and the final delivery list or geography.
Co-packing after imported freight arrives
Some importers need more than storage and final-mile delivery. Products may need assembly, labeling, retail preparation or co-packing before distribution. For Canadian co-packing options, see Copacker.ca. Businesses operating in the regulated cannabis category can also review specialized packaging and co-packing resources at CannabisCoPacking.ca.
