Cross-Docking across the Los Angeles & Inland Empire metro
The ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach feed the Inland Empire, the densest warehouse market in the country. Coverage includes transload and cross-dock partners near the ports in Carson and Wilmington, the near-dock markets of Commerce and Vernon, and the big-box corridor from Ontario to Fontana and Rialto along I-10.
Cross-docking moves freight directly from an inbound trailer to an outbound trailer with little or no storage in between. Carriers use it when a driver runs out of hours, a tractor breaks down, or a load needs to be split between two destinations. Brokers use it to recover a load from a failed carrier, consolidate partial shipments or reposition freight closer to a receiver before an appointment.

Freight transfers, paperwork follows
The facility unloads, counts, stages and reloads. You receive piece counts, photos and a signed BOL for the outbound leg.
Typical turnaround in Los Angeles & Inland Empire
Dock confirmed in 15 minutes. Transfers typically complete within 2 to 6 hours of the inbound trailer arriving, depending on pallet count and whether the outbound truck is already on site. Short-term staging of 24 to 72 hours is available when the outbound is delayed.
What drives the cost
- Pallet or piece count and whether freight is palletized, floor-loaded or mixed
- Dwell time if the outbound trailer is not ready the same day
- Special handling: hazmat, high-value, oversized or temperature-controlled freight
- After-hours and weekend dock labor
- Whether the facility also provides drop-trailer space
