Railcar Unloading
Seven of our facilities are served by the railroads for carload loading or unloading. We have extensive experience. At Railway Express we are adept at handling lumber, panel, and other building products. At the Brookvale and F&S facilities, we can handle consumer and industrial cargoes. In Wilmington, we can handle all cargoes including reefer transload and overdimensional flatcar loading and unloading.
London Metal Exchange Warehousing
In 1995, our Wilmington facility in Los Angeles was awarded the designation of LME warehouse. We handle copper, tin, lead, aluminum, zinc, and nickel, under LME contract procedures. With those contract specifications, we issue warrants for the metal received. Those warrants are traded on the open London Metal Exchange. We can ship or receive via truck or railcar and handle into warehouse or into export containers. We are your metal handling specialist and we ensure warrant integrity.
Foreign Trade Zone and Bonded Warehousing
Both the Wilmington (FTZ No. 202) and Savannah (FTZ No. 104) facilities are
FTZ-designated area. Both facilities have space expandable and contractable for bonded
storage, weekly entry, duty avoidance, or light manufacturing under bond.
Wilmington also has Container Freight Station bond and a Warehouse bond with U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP).
Brookvale Carson is also CFS-bonded. If you have quota, duty,
tax, or import documentation issues, contact us and we can find a solution.
Overdimensional and Project Cargoes
One of our specialities in the Port of Los Angeles and Long Beach is the transportation and loading or unloading of project cargoes. We have extensive background in the securement and loading procedures for flatrack and bolster containers. We load and unload automobiles, transformers, power plants, mobile missile batteries, and many more heavy-weighted and overdimensional items. We also do the permit drayage to and from the piers. Challenge us with your specialized cargo needs!
