More Questions About Warehousing & Distribution in California
Why is warehousing near SFO or LAX better for California distribution?
Warehousing adjacent to SFO or LAX eliminates the costly and time-consuming transfer from airport cargo terminal to a distant warehouse before distribution begins. Freight received at our SFO Hub (South San Francisco, 1 mile from SFO cargo terminals) or LAX Hub (Inglewood, adjacent to LAX cargo facilities) is immediately available for same-day processing, cross-docking, or storage — without the delays and costs of moving cargo to a remote warehouse first. This is particularly valuable for time-sensitive imports, perishables, and e-commerce fulfillment.
Can you provide fulfillment and distribution for e-commerce businesses in California?
Yes. Marvin Transportation offers pick-and-pack fulfillment and last-mile distribution for e-commerce businesses warehousing inventory at our SFO or LAX facilities. We receive inbound stock, store it, process orders, pick and pack individual parcels, and dispatch for same-day or next-day delivery across California. This service is ideal for e-commerce brands selling in the California market who need a Bay Area or LA Basin distribution hub near their target customers.
Do you offer pallet storage for importers awaiting California customs clearance?
Yes. Marvin Transportation provides short-term pallet storage at our SFO and LAX warehouse facilities for importers whose freight is pending CBP (Customs and Border Protection) examination or clearance. We receive freight from the airport cargo terminal, provide bonded-compatible staging, and release for distribution immediately upon customs clearance. This eliminates demurrage charges at airport cargo terminals and gives importers a convenient California distribution hub from the point of customs release.
