Cross-Docking across the Miami metro

Miami is the gateway for Latin American and Caribbean freight and a market where recovered and rejected loads are common. Coverage is deepest in the Medley, Doral and Hialeah industrial belt along SR 826, and north through Miami Gardens and Opa-locka toward Fort Lauderdale.

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.

How it works

Share the move

Tell us where the inbound trailer is, what is on it, where the outbound is headed and when the receiver needs it.

We confirm the dock

Within 15 minutes we match a facility with open doors, the right equipment and hours that fit your timeline, including nights and weekends.

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 Miami

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

In Miami Gardens, WarehouseNow cleared 38 stolen pallets from a recovery site inside a ten-minute window set by police, with a crew, a secure facility and a chain of custody arranged in minutes. Read the case study

How quickly can you set up an emergency cross-dock?
