Get freight ready for cross-docking
Coordinate incoming freight and outgoing destinations before the truck arrives.
Connect the two sides
Cross-docking involves unloading, sorting, and reloading freight for its next movement. Planning works best when incoming arrival details and outbound destinations are shared together.
Keep identification consistent
Provide shipment references, counts, destination labels, and handling requirements. Discuss how discrepancies or damaged items should be recorded and who should be contacted.
Coordinate the schedule
Share estimated arrival information and requested outbound timing with NDE. The team must confirm the handling plan and schedule; publication of this guide does not guarantee turnaround time.
