FACILITY AND CARGO HANDLING SOLUTIONS
Cargo handling and storage built around the wider flow
Connect cargo receiving, consolidation, container activity, storage and dispatch through one coordinated facility solution.
Service overview
Keep cargo moving through each facility milestone
Cargo may need to be received, checked, segregated or consolidated before it enters a container. It may also require storage, inventory recording, repacking, order preparation or distribution after arrival. ELS coordinates these activities within an agreed operating scope and connects facility milestones with the transport plan.
The service can be designed around a specific shipment, regular consolidation programme, import flow or ongoing warehouse requirement. Availability depends on the approved location, cargo profile, space, equipment and handling conditions.
