Cross Docking Services

Cross docking services are involving moving of freight from one trailer or train car to another outbound truck.  In the LTL Freight market, it is used quite frequently above all other methods.  Cross docking services provide opportunities to lower freight costs because loads can be reassembled to match destinations of the trucks along the way.

cross docking servicesPros & Cons

The big advantage to shippers and receivers is that cross-docking can streamline the trip insuring that cargo is delivered quickly. Warehouse costs are eliminated and freight is delivered quickly.  The disadvantage is that the additional handling of freight can create opportunities for damage and adequate tracking systems must be in place to handle the transfers.
