Receiving & Handling in Vancouver at a glance
Receiving, put-away, counts, staging and load-out on a 200,000+ sq ft floor with twenty dock doors and a twelve-person team who do this every day. Customers often underestimate handling. On an active account it can cost as much as the storage, so we quote it as its own line and explain what drives it before you sign.

FAQ
Questions about receiving & handling in Vancouver
How is handling billed?
Per pallet, charged once on the way in and once on the way out. Value-added work such as carton picking or labelling is quoted separately, so you can see what it costs.
Can you take drop trailers?
Yes. With twenty dock doors and yard space, we can take a drop trailer and work it to your schedule, so no driver sits waiting. Tell us the pattern and we will confirm what the yard can hold.
What happens on the first receipt?
A supervisor walks your first receipt, so any awkward part of your product shows up on day one rather than day thirty.
