The Ad Hoc Logistics team at work

Built around the gateway

Minutes from the Seattle & Tacoma terminals.

Our yard sits in Kent, between both ports, so our drivers hit the gates early and your freight is moving before the Last Free Day turns into a demurrage bill.

What we do

Everything we handle for you

Transloading — palletized & floor-loaded

Palletized transloads: commodity comes in on pallets and goes out on pallets. Floor-loaded transloads: commodity arrives loaded on the floor of a container or trailer, then is transferred onto pallets and loaded out.

Cross-dock

Direct transfer of the commodity from one trailer or container to another — fast, with minimal dwell.

Oversize & overweight loads

Oversize and overweight transload and drayage services available on request. Our warehouse team is well-equipped and experienced in overweight transloads, often loaded onto flatbed / stepdeck trailers.

Container handling & storage

Container repair and cleaning, container storage, and flipping a container — handled in-house at our yard.

Storage — short & long term

Need somewhere to park freight for a few days or a few months? We've got secure warehouse and yard space, and we'll keep an eye on it.

Drayage — local & long haul

With a large and very experienced fleet of drivers and owner-operators, we specialize in local and long-haul drayage. We are set up and working with both the Ports of Seattle and Tacoma.
