In cross-docking, incoming freight is unloaded and immediately reloaded onto outbound trucks with little or no warehousing. This eliminates unnecessary storage delays and “unnecessary inventory holding costs,” speeding your products to market. OLIMP’s cross docking services let shippers and carriers transfer goods faster and more efficiently. We connect your freight to a nationwide network of partner facilities, so you save time and money. Cross-docking helps businesses across retail, manufacturing, and distribution deliver goods on time and reduce overhead.

OLIMP’s cross-docking service streamlines your shipments through these steps:
Sorting & Redirecting: Arriving trucks unload at our partner cross-dock hubs. Goods are immediately sorted by destination.
Consolidated Freight : Multiple smaller inbound loads can be merged into a single outbound shipment. This consolidation creates fuller truckloads, reducing transportation costs.
Deconsolidation: Large incoming shipments are broken into smaller loads for final delivery. This allows flexible routing to multiple destinations.
Direct Reload: Sorted cargo is directly loaded onto outbound trucks with minimal pause. Shipments then depart for their next stop or end customers.
These processes eliminate extra warehousing steps. Our cross-dock warehouses are designed with multiple inbound and outbound docks, so freight flows continuously. The result is a just-in-time transfer of goods that cuts lead times and handling costs. By working with experienced logistics partners, OLIMP ensures your freight keeps moving through each stage efficiently.
For shippers and carriers, cross docking delivers measurable advantages, including:
Faster Delivery: Goods spend almost no time in storage, so they reach customers more quickly. Cross-docking “ensures quicker distribution and fulfillment” of orders. Shorter lead times mean higher customer satisfaction and more agile inventory turns.
Lower Costs: Eliminate long-term storage and extra handling; cross-docking “reduces the need for storage by quickly transferring goods” , slashing warehousing and labor expenses.
Lean Inventory: Maintain just-in-time inventory and minimize on-hand stock, freeing up warehouse space and capital.
Flexibility: Handle any shipment size or type (LTL, FTL, pallets or oversized freight) without delay, adapting easily to seasonal peaks or variable demand.
24/7 Operations: Many of our cross dock facilities operate around the clock, ensuring shipments keep moving and preventing costly delays.
Real-Time Visibility: Advanced tracking tools give you full visibility of every pallet and shipment, improving planning and on-time delivery rates.
These benefits translate into smoother operations, faster order fulfillment, and higher customer satisfaction across your supply chain.

Cross docking moves freight directly from inbound to outbound trucks with minimal storage time, ideal for fast, just-in-time delivery. In contrast, warehousing involves storing goods for longer periods before shipment.
No, transloading involves transferring goods between different transport modes (e.g., from a container to a truck), while cross docking is primarily truck-to-truck with minimal storage, usually for domestic distribution.
