Freight Receiving Services for Businesses

Philadelphia businesses rely on our freight receiving services to manage shipments when they can’t accept deliveries directly.

Why Businesses Use Our Receiving Services:

• No Loading Dock: Many Philadelphia office buildings and storefronts lack loading docks or freight elevators. Large shipments can’t be accepted. We receive at our facility and deliver when building access is available.
• Limited Hours: If your business is open 9-5 but freight deliveries arrive at 6am, you miss shipments. We accept 24/7 and deliver on your schedule.
• Construction Sites: Deliveries to active construction sites risk damage or theft. We hold materials, fixtures, and equipment until installation day.
• Vacation Properties: Shore homes, mountain properties, or seasonal businesses need someone to receive and secure deliveries when owners aren’t present.
• Overflow Storage: Peak season shipments exceed your warehouse space. We receive, inventory, and deliver in smaller batches as needed.
• Quality Control Point: We inspect all freight for damage before accepting. This provides documentation for insurance claims if items arrive damaged.

Business Receiving Process:

1.  Setup-We become your authorized receiving agent. You provide our address for delivery and we’re listed as the receiver.
2. Shipment Notification-You (or your vendor) notifies us of incoming shipments with tracking numbers, PO numbers, and any special instructions.
