Cross-docking is a commonly strategy used by transportation company when the goods from one container is relocating to another container on a mutual location. 18 Wheels Logistics has full line of forklift machines to comply to different types of good transport. Our line of team members is experienced and well-certified to utilize the services with maximum efficiency and minimum risk.

This strategy is enabling several factors: eliminating space taking, lessening material handling, stretching shelf time, and reducing overall transportation costs.  It greatly impacts the offloading from an imported container for inventory visibility and tangibility. The method substantially cut the down time transporting goods to retailers or warehouse for storage, especially the goods are perishable items.

The operation can implement smoothly and adequately by experienced and skillful team members.
