Storage is only useful when it is connected to transportation. J&A coordinates warehousing, cross-docking, and fulfillment so inbound freight, inventory, and outbound orders are managed as one flow.
Warehousing from a 3PL is about more than square footage. It is receiving, put-away, inventory accuracy, order picking, and getting product back out the door on the right truck at the right time. J&A coordinates secure short-term and long-term storage through partner facilities, and because we also manage your freight, the warehouse and the trucks finally talk to each other.
Typical uses include overflow storage during seasonal peaks, staging inventory closer to customers, holding import containers until receiving docks are ready, cross-docking inbound truckloads into outbound LTL or parcel orders, and simple pick-and-pack fulfillment for B2B orders.
Your J&A representative manages the warehouse relationship, the inbound and outbound transportation, and the reporting, so you have one point of contact for the entire cycle instead of a separate vendor for each step.
Inbound freight is scheduled, received, counted, and reported so you know what is on hand and when it arrived.
Stock levels and movement reporting keep your planning team and your customers informed.
Orders are picked, packed, and shipped on the right mode, rated and tracked in the same portal as the rest of your freight.
Pallet positions, commodity, handling requirements, duration, and expected inbound and outbound volume.
A partner facility is matched to your location, commodity, and service requirements, and inbound freight is scheduled.
Receiving, storage, cross-docking, and fulfillment run against agreed service levels with regular reporting.
Outbound orders move on the best mode, and storage and freight costs are reviewed together in your business reviews.
Manufacturers and importers who need overflow or forward-stocked inventory, distributors consolidating inbound freight into outbound orders, and companies launching in a new region without committing to their own facility. Warehousing is most valuable combined with our drayage, truckload, and LTL services.
The questions shippers ask before they book.
No. As a non-asset-based 3PL we coordinate storage through vetted partner facilities, which lets us place your inventory where it makes sense rather than where we happen to own a building.
General dry freight is the most common. Food-grade, temperature-controlled, and hazmat storage can be arranged through facilities qualified for those commodities. Tell us what you need to store and we will confirm options.
Yes. Short-term and seasonal storage is one of the most common requests, especially around import surges and peak retail seasons.
Yes. Inbound truckloads or containers can be broken down and reshipped as LTL, parcel, or outbound truckloads, often without the freight ever going into racking.
Typically a combination of storage per pallet position and handling charges for receiving and shipping, agreed up front and reported alongside your freight spend.
