Safe & Affordable Shipping
At ACI Cargo, we provide secure and cost-effective consolidation services that bundle small shipments from different shippers bound for a similar destination. This service offers you affordable freight forwarding rates as you pay only for the space that your cargo occupies. Also, our service handles your load in a safer way, as the shipment is consolidated in our facility with minimal handling and stoppages during mid-transit.
Moreover, we offer customer consolidation solutions that can combine loads from various locations across the United States for you. Once we have securely picked cargo from the locations, we consolidate and ship it to your desired destination. This is a more affordable way of shipping cargo as opposed to transporting it from separate points.
Timely & Secure Order Fulfillment
ACI Cargo’s warehouses are equipped with picking and loading systems that can automatically plan the most efficient picking and loading strategy according to the type of inventory. Our picking systems produce error-free order lists and intelligent picking routes that let us perform the picking process in a fast and accurate way.
Additionally, utilizing loading systems lets us properly place and arrange your cargo in trucks to help minimize the chance of damage during transportation. This system also produces a loading plan that maximizes the space in shipping containers without compromising the safety of each shipment.
Cargo Handled By Dedicated Warehouse Experts
ACI Cargo ensures that your stored cargo is carefully and safely handled from receiving to shipping. This is because we have a team of dedicated warehousing professionals who are trained in-house on how to safely handle various types of cargo in different processes of the warehouse.
Additionally, we source our own equipment, and we only work with third-party contractors who are certified and meet our standards. This is to guarantee that the safety of your cargo is maintained.
Better Visibility with Updated Inventory Status
ACI Cargo provides real-time inventory updates that can help you gain better visibility across your stored cargo. This improved visibility can help you make faster and better-informed business decisions so that you can adapt to certain market changes quickly.
In addition to the prior benefits, real-time inventory updates help you take action to avoid stockouts and excess inventory faster as you have access to up-to-date data about your cargo. This can result in more sales since you can replenish on time and reduce holding costs from slow-moving cargo.
