Cross-docking allows pallets to be forwarded directly to the customer without storage. The products are loaded at the manufacturer's premises and trans-shipped on our site to another trailer for transport. Ideal for products with a short shelf life, such as both chilled and frozen foods.
At Müller, we cross-dock thousands of shipments every day for many different customers. Shipments are dispatched to delivery addresses in combined fashion. For example, we cross-dock many shipments destined for retail and wholesale distribution centres. By bundling pallets onto one trailer, we save costs for our customers. The high loading factor also makes this a very sustainable transport solution.
