Warehouse Moving Along I-495 and MetroWest

Get the dock rules in writing at both buildings. In the Marlborough and Milford flex parks and the Franklin and Mansfield industrial parks, one loading face often serves several tenants, and booking a door does not necessarily include the truck apron or staging space. Tell us the dock height and whether there is a leveler or dock plate, since a box truck sits lower than a trailer.

Your operations lead sets the count freeze and the last outbound pick, and marks a staging strip that keeps the active pick path open until then. Most warehouse moves run from a Friday cutoff through the weekend, which we can do on request. The new building needs a receiving area where your staff can check labels before stock goes to the shelves. Either property manager may want our insurance certificate, which we issue to their wording.

Stock moves in the order it was counted. We keep each aisle's cartons together through the truck and onto the receiving floor, and nothing from one aisle is used to fill space on another's load. Cartons with an uncertain count go into a marked exception group for your team.

Small-parts bins get lids or wrap, drawers are taped, and shelving hardware is bagged with its section. Heavy cartons ride low on the truck, and light ones never carry weight on top of them. On the new floor, we unload into the zones on your map and leave aisles open so staff can check before stocking. Racking and machinery stay with their installers and operators, and we time our loads to the zones the racking installer has finished.
