Warehousing Services Connected to Transportation
Storage + transportation
Storage and trucks under one roof — so your freight only changes hands once.
Ship Smart Solutions provides warehousing services that connect directly to our own trucks, so your product moves from storage to delivery through one accountable provider instead of a warehouse handing off to a separate carrier. From 3PL warehousing and cold storage to cross-docking, pick-and-pack, and order fulfillment, we manage the space and the transportation together — which means fewer handoffs, tighter timing, and one team answering for your inventory.
- One accountable provider
Storage, fulfillment, transportation, and delivery coordinated through one team.
- Cold-chain connection
Temperature-controlled storage connects directly to reefer transportation.
- Order fulfillment
Inventory, pick-and-pack, and outbound dispatch aligned to your order flow.
- Nationwide distribution
A central Midwest position supports regional replenishment and 48-state reach.

The connected-operation difference
Why Storage and Transportation Belong Together
Many shippers manage a warehouse and carrier as separate vendors and absorb the delay, handoffs, and unclear responsibility between them. Ship Smart coordinates storage and transportation as one operating plan.
Separate-vendor model
The warehouse and carrier operate as separate handoffs.
- Inventory and transportation managed by different teams
- Additional coordination before every outbound move
- Cold-chain responsibility split across providers
- Delivery and inventory questions go to different contacts
Ship Smart model
Storage and company-operated transportation work as one plan.
- Product moves from our dock to coordinated truck capacity
- The storage team and transportation team align timing
- Cold storage connects directly to reefer movement
- One accountable team supports inventory and delivery
