Questions before you ship
Can you palletize my goods?
Yes. Describe the goods, packaging and quantities so the team can discuss palletizing requirements and pricing.
What is the difference between cross-docking and transloading?
Cross-docking moves incoming freight to outbound transport with limited storage. Transloading transfers freight between equipment, such as a container and a truck. A shipment may involve both. Read transloading vs. cross-docking and palletizing: which do you need?
Do you collect containers directly at the port?
No. Pelham does not work directly with the port. Confirm inbound delivery arrangements with the team before sending freight to a facility.
