Enhance Your Supply Chain Flexibility

Transload enables our customers to maintain a consistent flow of product through their supply chain, but also enables specific products to be expedited on short notice without additional cost other than the cost of team trucking. Alternately if your DC network is overburdened, we can flow product to you based on priority of need, which means we can also slow down the flow if needed.

Reduce Labor Cost or Improve DC Capacity

Do you have high labor costs in your DC network? We can do a study on palletizing product from inbound international floor loaded containers before it arrives at your DC which could reduce DC labor costs up to 70% and free up yard space by enabling a simple palletized live unload.

Demurrage and Freetime

Gone are the days of paying for demurrage and per diem, DHL Transload Services will manage the flow of international ocean equipment to ensure freetime is properly utilized and no additional charges are incurred.

Latin America Shipments
