Cross Docking
Cross-docking is the practice of unloading and loading materials with little or no storage time in a warehouse.
Cross-docking can save your company dollars and time by reducing handling costs, storage costs, and transportation costs.
If emergency situations arise, we pride ourselves in expediting your exception issues to your satisfaction. By providing flexible staffing, we can move quickly to complete your special needs on your timetable.
Everyday loads shift in transit and appointments are missed. Warehouse Basics is a key player in emergency situations for distressed services in the Southeast Region. Warehouse Basics can react with limited notice and under short time constraints.
Same day solutions in most cases. We accept EFS, TCHECK, COMCHEK, and all major credit cards.
Why Cross-Dock?
Cross-docking can keep truck drivers moving and free up resources to ensure the supply chain continues for other loads.
Shifted Loads
Whether a driver slams the brakes, takes a hard turn, or product is not secured, Warehouse Basics can help rework loads that have been refused due to shifted freight.
Missed Appointments
Traffic, breakdowns, and weather can cause loads to miss delivery appointments. Warehouse Basics can unload and store the freight until a new appointment is made for delivery.
Trailer Damage
Trucks can get in accidents or have failed equipment that would delay deliveries or pick ups. Warehouse Basics can help unload freight off of damaged trailers and reload onto a new trailer for final delivery.
Temporary Storage
Consignees and delivery locations may not be ready to receive loads/products. Warehouse Basics can unload and store until the delivery site is ready to receive.
