traverse the last mile with ease
Logistical hurdles abound at every stage in your moving process. For many businesses, the most crucial link in the chain will be the “Last Mile” of your move—the move from warehousing or from a transportation hub to your final destination. The logistical and distribution problems of the first and last miles are responsible for the majority of your move’s cost and complexity.
You will require a large, integrated services company like The Advance Group to handle last mile delivery and logistics efficiently and cost effectively. This need is especially urgent if your relocation is interstate or requires vast storage capabilities. The Advance Group has the experience, the facilities and the diverse array of innovative solutions that make us the perfect resource for the last leg of your relocation.
Here are the main stages of a typical Last Mile operation:
Consolidation & Warehousing
The Advance Group will use one or more of our generous warehouse facilities to act as the consolidation point for your assets. Our largest warehouse is just outside New Jersey and is perfectly situated for all New York last-mile moves. Consolidation includes inspection, sorting and detailed inventory processes and warehousing in our state-of-the-art facilities.
Inventory Management & Delivery Sequencing
We’ll be your single-source supplier, managing the many complexities that come from the need for “just-in-time” delivery: handling many products at one time, assembling products into various groupings, regularly checking inventory levels, and delivering products to distant locations.
We’re equipped to handle almost any moving challenge. Our fleet is available for pickups and deliveries 24/7. The Advance Group uses Windfall, which is state-of-the-art warehousing/inventory management software. Client access is always available: look over your inventory, place work orders and track the status of a particular item.
Unpacking, Installation & Assembly
Deliveries are arranged using a detailed protocol that ensures full, safe stewardship of your property from the first mile to the last. Count on The Advance Group for full-service final installation and assembly for furniture, fixtures, office technology, machines and more. Debris removal, liquidation, and recycling are also available.
