Too many stops, too much time, and your product still hasn’t reached your customer. Sound familiar? At RLS Logistics, we’ve long championed solutions that streamline operations, reduce costs, and ensure product integrity. Deconsolidation stands out as a pivotal process that when executed effectively, can completely transform the dynamics of your supply chain.
What is Deconsolidation?
Deconsolidation involves breaking down large, consolidated shipments into smaller, individual consignments tailored for specific delivery locations. This process is especially crucial for businesses dealing with perishable goods, where timely and precise deliveries are critical due to the nature of the product. At RLS, our deconsolidation services are more than just a step in the supply chain; they’re a strategic advantage.
Strategically Located Facilities
Our cross dock facility in Newfield, NJ, is a hub of activity, designed to expedite the deconsolidation process. Its proximity to major East Coast metropolitan areas like Philadelphia, Baltimore, New York City, and Boston ensures that your products are swiftly sorted and delivered to their final destinations.
Integrated Cold Storage Solutions
Our integrated solutions are designed to streamline your supply chain, ensuring efficiency and reliability from origin to destination. Our BRCGS-AA rated cold storage facilities, located strategically across New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Utah, offer temperature controlled warehousing at the highest level. With advanced inventory management systems, including RF scanning and online inventory control, customers have real time visibility and control over their products. Deconsolidation services are available at all RLS Logistics facilities.
Enhanced Efficiency and Reduced Costs
By consolidating initial inbound freight from multiple shippers and strategically deconsolidating it closer to final destinations, we help our customers avoid spending days delivering into one region and inflated costs. This approach reduces wait and lead times, from production facilities into retail distribution centers or directly to consumers.
Real Time Visibility with Anello
Transparency is key in logistics. Our customer portal, anello, offers real time tracking and insights into your shipments and inventory. From the moment your products enter our facility to their final delivery, you’re kept in the loop, ensuring peace of mind and data driven decision making.
