Warehousing can be a complex and costly operation for businesses, but cross-docking can help to streamline the process and save on costs. This procedure requires a high level of organizational skills, but our team at Xcel Delivery is more than up to the task. Read on to learn more about our cross-docking services and how they can help your business.
What is cross-docking?
Cross-docking is a logistics procedure in which incoming products are immediately loaded onto outbound vehicles, without being stored in a warehouse first. This technique can save on storage costs and improve efficiency by reducing the time spent handling products.
How does it work?
In a typical warehouse operation, inbound products are stored in a warehouse until they are needed for shipment. This means that the products must be retrieved from storage, loaded onto a vehicle, and then shipped out to the customer. With cross-docking, inbound products are instead loaded directly onto an outbound vehicle as soon as they arrive at the facility. This eliminates the need to store the products in a warehouse, saving on space and labor costs.
