EGA Logistics’ Shuttle and Spotting Services are our specialized transportation services that involve the movement of trailers or containers within a specific location, such as a warehouse, distribution center, or manufacturing facility. These services play a crucial role in optimizing the efficiency of supply chain operations and managing the flow of goods.
1. Shuttle Services: Shuttle services involve the movement of trailers or containers between different locations within a facility or between nearby facilities. These movements are usually short-distance and are designed to transport goods from one point to another within the supply chain, such as from a storage area to a loading dock or from one production area to another. Shuttles help streamline internal logistics, reducing the time and effort required to move goods around.
2. Spotting Services: Spotting services focus on placing trailers or containers in specific locations, often at a customer’s site or a distribution center. The process involves accurately positioning the trailer or container for loading or unloading purposes. Spotters are skilled drivers who handle the movement of these trailers within the facility, ensuring they are in the right place at the right time. This service helps optimize the loading and unloading process and reduces congestion and delays at the facility.
Both Shuttle and Spotting Services are essential for companies with significant warehouse and distribution operations. By outsourcing these tasks to specialized providers or utilizing internal resources efficiently, businesses can improve supply chain efficiency, reduce handling time, and enhance overall logistics operations.
