FAQ

Common questions

Is this storage?

No. Cross-docking means freight moves through the facility for consolidation or transfer. If you have a storage need, contact the office to discuss whether Burnsed can support it.

Can you receive freight from another carrier?

Send the details through the quote form or call the office. Inbound scheduling depends on dock capacity and the outbound plan for the freight.
