TRANSLOADING
A very important part of our service menu includes all manners of transloading. As the balance of containers continue to stress the supply chain and steamship carriers tighten demurrage requirements, the role NBW plays in transloading has become very important.
An important part of import transloading is the coordination of cargo recovery from the CFS provider by the designated ground carrier (LTL and TL.) This requires a good working relationship and communication between the CFS and trucker. NBW provides a flex appointment schedule allowing truckers a reasonable window to arrive for pick up assuring minimal loading time. It is the goal of NBW to provide prompt and courteous service to all ground carriers that are utilized for first and final mile delivery.
