Cross-docking is the process of taking incoming freight and loading it directly into outbound trucks with little to no storage in between. Cross docking is typically used to combine shipments coming in from different origins into trucks or containers with the same or similar destinations.
We offer both long term and short term storage for your cargo in many transportation hubs across the country. Landmark truly is your one stop solution for all of your cross-docking needs.
Cross docking maximizes our customers’ supply chain efficiency by speeding the flow of goods to their respective markets. Developments in information systems and software solutions allow for real-time shipment status and up-to-the-minute shipping activity records as part of our cross-docking solutions.
By using cross-docking services, a company can reduce inventory storage costs, decrease risk to product by limiting handling, and increase speed to market.
