The Client’s Needs
A leading client in the consumer goods sector needed to transport 75 dry van loads filled with packaged merchandise from Vancouver, BC to Miami, FL. These shipments were part of a strategic national distribution plan, supporting timely retail launches across the southeastern United States.
Given the high volume and multi-week duration of the project, reliability and timing were critical. They needed a logistics provider who could manage the entire lifecycle—pickup, linehaul, and final-mile delivery—without compromising efficiency or visibility.
The Challenges
Coast-to-coast transportation of commercial goods brings complexity. The project presented multiple logistical challenges:
- Organizing 75 separate pickups in Vancouver without clogging warehouse operations
- Managing long-haul transit over 3,000 miles with tight delivery deadlines
- Navigating customs and border processes smoothly at scale
- Coordinating communication and tracking for dozens of individual shipments
- Ensuring safe, damage-free transport across various terrains and weather conditions
Our Solution
Qeep Logistics responded with a custom end-to-end solution, built around precision, coordination, and transparency.
Step 1: Streamlined Pickup Scheduling in Vancouver
We worked closely with the client’s warehouse to create a staggered pickup plan. This ensured steady outbound flow without causing dock congestion or disrupting ongoing operations.
Step 2: Long-Haul Dry Van Management
From the first mile to the last, our team managed each load using route optimization, live tracking, and contingency planning. We monitored every shipment in real time, keeping deliveries aligned with target arrival windows.
Step 3: Seamless Cross-Border Coordination
All customs documentation was pre-processed and verified before the trucks even reached the U.S. border. Thanks to our cross-border specialists, each load cleared smoothly, eliminating the risk of delays at customs checkpoints.
Step 4: Precision Delivery to Miami
Each shipment was scheduled and delivered within its assigned time slot. Whether we handled one trailer or multiple deliveries in a week, we ensured punctuality, minimizing disruption to the client’s distribution rollout.
Step 5: Clear, Ongoing Communication
We provided proactive updates throughout the process. From dispatch to delivery, the client had full visibility and didn’t have to chase information. Our team stayed responsive and transparent.
Step 6: Focus on Cargo Integrity
Cargo was securely loaded, sealed, and monitored throughout the trip. Our clean, well-maintained dry vans protected the packaged goods against weather, shifting, and contamination, ensuring every pallet arrived in perfect condition.
