Faster Product Flow

The speed of delivery is the key ingredient to a successful e-commerce supply chain. Flowspace cross-dock services deliver speed and efficiency by consolidating inventory and shipping directly to the final customer.

That’s the kind of speed and optimization that enables faster inventory turn around and makes expedited and same-day delivery possible.

Minimize Storage Costs

Unlike a fulfillment center or warehouse, Flowspace cross docks minimize the cost labor, material handling, and storage in three easy steps. The total time your inventory spends in storage? Less than 24 hours. This allows you to reduce the amount of handling your products experience, thus minimizing the risk of damage to your products.

Flowspace cross-docking services not only minimize the amount of handling your products experience, but they also reduce overstocking by reducing the need to carry standing inventory. The reduction of standing inventory means you have more space for areas your business needs the most.

Flowspace Certified Cross Dock

Flowspace cross-docking streamlines many processes within the supply chain, thus reducing the number of human interactions that need to take place. Every time a human touches a shipment, they increase the risk that an error may occur.

The inbound truck docks at the cross-dock, then freight is removed, screened, and transferred to the outbound truck via forklift, conveyor belt, or automated warehousing system for final delivery to the customer.
