TRANSLOADING & DRAYAGE SERVICES — PORTLAND, ME
Revolutionize Your Supply Chain with Local Port Expertise
At OLIMP Warehousing in Portland, Maine, we make freight transfers fast and simple. Our transloading and drayage services connect ships arriving at the Port of Portland directly to your supply chain — without wasted time or extra steps.
Transloading allows us to move cargo quickly from ocean containers to trucks or railcars, getting your products on the road sooner. Our local drayage team handles short-distance container hauls between the port, our facility, and nearby warehouses with precision and care.
By managing pickup, palletizing, and transfer operations all on-site, OLIMP keeps your freight flowing smoothly. The result? Fewer hand-offs, less downtime, and faster delivery to your customers.
Strategic Portland Port & Highway Access
Portland, ME is home to New England’s busiest, year-round ice-free harbor — a key gateway for freight moving across the Northeast.
OLIMP’s warehouse sits just minutes from the Port of Portland’s deep-water terminals and major highways (I-95/I-295). This location allows every vessel arrival to be turned into inland freight within hours.
At our nearby facility, containers are offloaded fast and transferred directly to trucks or rail connections — cutting extra miles and reducing delivery time.
With Portland moving millions of tons of cargo annually, our local presence gives you direct access to the region’s import and export flow. From seafood and paper goods to retail products, OLIMP connects your shipments to a nationwide network of warehouses and carriers.
The result? Lower drayage costs, shorter transit times, and fewer port delays. By leveraging Portland’s port and highway links, OLIMP keeps your cargo moving efficiently — and your supply chain ahead of schedule.
Comprehensive Port Services & Expertise
Our Portland facility handles every step of container handling. We use dedicated chassis, forklifts and skilled crews to offload containers 24/7. As soon as a container arrives, we break it down – palletizing or sorting goods as needed – then reload them onto trucks or railcars bound for their next stop.
OLIMP bundles drayage, transloading and even short-term bonded storage into a single service. For example, we coordinate customs paperwork, cross-dock shipments to cut handling time, and provide secure warehouse space if you need to hold goods briefly. With our own equipment on site (chassis and lift trucks), your shipment never sits waiting for gear. This end-to-end management means you deal with one expert provider – saving you time and avoiding miscommunication.
In practice, whether it’s an inbound import or export load, OLIMP acts as your local logistics partner: picking up containers at the pier, transloading cargo, and dispatching it onward, all while you track it online in real time.
Key Benefits & Cost Savings
Lower Freight Costs: By transloading ocean containers into 53′ domestic trailers, we slash international shipping and drayage fees. Avoiding empty-container returns and extra chassis rentals can save up to 3 moves per 4 imported containers.
Faster Deliveries: Our cross-dock approach keeps cargo moving continuously. Shipments are cleared, consolidated and immediately sent out, meaning products reach customers or retail outlets faster.
Minimal Port Delays: We unload containers the moment they arrive and quickly return chassis to the port, avoiding demurrage and detention charges. Your goods spend less time on hold and more time en route.
Scalable, Flexible Capacity: OLIMP’s network adapts to seasonal spikes and special requirements. Need bonded, temperature-controlled or hazmat-safe space? We’ve got you covered. Every facility is vetted and staffed by trained pros, ensuring safe, efficient handling of any cargo type.
