Cross-Docking Solutions

Cross-docking is a cost-savings practice that allows clients to transfer their goods directly to one of our warehouse facilities and offload them in order to avoid tying up the vehicle and delivery driver in the event the next destination is not ready to accept the shipment–significantly reducing costs associated with a paused vehicle and driver. All products are handled by reliable logistics professionals using our advanced scheduling practices to ensure that goods are timed perfectly to minimize storage time and fulfill the next stage of the delivery more efficiently. With cross-docking services from Novo, our clients can find temporary storage without tying up delivery drivers or hustling to find a costly short-term storage option nearby.
