Quickly, easily and inexpensively change locations of drop yards to service shifting retail hot-spots.
Rapidly expand operations to secure and service new markets without adding regional warehouses or cross-docks.
Consolidate warehousing, inventory and administrative functions at a central facility.
Recruit and retain quality drivers at the regional market by offering steady work to a consistent customer base in an area close to their homes.

Customer Advantages
Local drivers arrive earlier – Line-hauling pre-loaded bodies to the regional market at night enables local drivers to depart and deliver sooner.
Wider selection of product available – Streamlining the order fulfillment and loading process and centralizing inventory make it simpler to offer more SKUs to customers.
More attention paid to customer – Earlier departures give local drivers more time to focus on customer needs for an enhanced level of service.
Continued customer-driver relationship – Pick-ups can shift from the regional warehouse or cross-dock to a drop yard without any disruption in the relationship between the customer and local driver.
Less damage and fewer returns – Since product travels directly from warehouse to customer in the same truck body there’s less opportunity for damage or incorrect loading.
Consistent daily service – Eliminating double-handling freight at regional warehouses or cross-docks simplifies logistics to make the order-to-delivery cycle more routine.
