- Freight consolidation and deconsolidation – combine LTL shipments into full truckloads or split truckloads into multiple deliveries to optimise routing.

Professional Pallet Rework & Preparation
Damaged or shifting pallets can delay shipments and increase costs. Our pallet rework services in Carlisle ensure your freight is properly stacked and secured before it leaves the dock:
- Pallet repair and re‑stacking – reinforce weak pallets, replace broken boards and rebuild loads to meet carrier specifications.
- Load compliance – adjust over‑height or unstable pallets to comply with DOT regulations and warehouse safety standards.
- Shrink‑wrapping and banding – secure loads with stretch film and bands to prevent movement during transit.
- Special handling – reconfigure mixed‑SKU pallets, remove damaged units and prepare goods for retail displays.
By investing in proper pallet rework, you reduce damage claims, avoid refused loads and ensure smooth transportation from Carlisle to your customers.
Seamless Intermodal Transfers and Port Connections
Carlisle’s central location supports efficient drayage and transloading for both domestic and international shipments. Our drayage and transloading services include:
- Port and rail drayage – move containers between ports (Baltimore, Philadelphia), intermodal terminals and your warehouse using reliable trucking partners.
- Container unloading and transloading – transfer freight from containers to domestic trailers for last‑mile delivery or reload goods into containers for export.
- Customs and compliance support – coordinate with customs brokers to ensure documentation is in order and avoid delays.
- Short‑term storage – combine transloading with temporary warehousing to match delivery schedules.
By entrusting your drayage and transloading to OLIMP, you minimise dwell time at ports, reduce demurrage fees and keep your supply chain moving.
