2018 Optimum Growth

The Gateway OT Logistics Group experienced Optimum Growth in 2018 in all facets of the business including Gateway Crate and Freight (Custom Crating and Packing), Gateway Intermodal (Rail), Gateway Optimum Transportation (Truckload and LTL Freight) as well as our new DeliveXy service (Last Mile, Inside Delivery Services) 

2018 saw Gateway expand into Larger offices and cross dock warehousing space in Chandler Arizona. Gateway also opened a new warehouse and office in Tukwila, Washington as well as adding service staff in San Bernadino, California and Henderson, Nevada.

A number of our clients were responsible for the exponential growth we had in these areas. 

One client relied on Gateway O.T to Distribute, Cross Dock and Inside Deliver and Assemble with Debris Removal over 10,000 large furniture units in 2018, which we installed in multiple locations in ALL 50 states. Gateway is now going into our third year of supplying nationwide coverage for this client including servicing Alaska, Hawaii and the U.S Territories. We even delivered to North Pole, Alaska. Does Santa live here?  

Another client had us delivering their product across the U.S as well. This product had to be shipped, disassembled, inside delivered and reassembled by our professional delivery crews. This product took us into many of the famous sports stadiums around the country like Pro Player Stadium, Chase Field, Vivent Arena, Philips Arena and Mile High Stadium.

The Gateway O.T Motor Carrier Division began hot shot runs and standard runs for a couple of clients based in the Los Angeles area between our facility in Chandler AZ and San Bernadino CA, allowing us to grow our pickup and delivery services in both the Southern California and Phoenix Metro markets.

An important client based in Arizona moved to the Seattle area, where Gateway Crate and Freight already had a good customer base of clients prompting the need to open a new warehouse that could also provide on demand IPPC certification crating for custom export crates in the Seattle Tacoma area. 

With large clients needing Trade Show crating, packing and shipping services, the need for a stronger presence in the Las Vegas area was a logical step in Gateways growth in 2018. Adding Gateway staff to the Henderson NV area allows us to provide the best service to our clients in Southern Nevada. 

International shipping both Ocean and Air saw optimal growth in 2018 as well. Gateway OT shipped to over 40 different countries last year with the vast majority of those shipments requiring Gateway Crate and Freight to crate, pack and ship using our IPPC certified materials.

As a Veteran Owned Business we are most proud of the work we do for the men and women of our Armed Forces and the work we do for the companies that support them. We have moved a number of jet engines flatbed this year for our engineering client who provides services to Military aircraft. Gateway also had the privilege of crating and shipping Satellites and Satellite  parts for multiple clients to NASA centers around the U.S. We also have a partner who provides Ballistic Paneled cubicles to the men and women of the armed forces around the U.S who work in areas that provide limited protection from attack.

2018 was a great year for Optimal Growth. 2019 is right around the corner and Gateway OT and our logistics family is poised to grow even more to support our clients who believe in what we do and how we do it. If your looking for an Optimum distribution solution, look no further than Gateway O.T Our Logistics Group family has the solution for you.

Does your delivery need a C.O.I?

In the Transportation Logistics world insurance is required for pretty much everything. General Liability, Motor Truck, Contingent Cargo and Marine Cargo as well as coverage's like Errors and Omissions and Workman's Compensation. You would think by needing all this coverage that moving cargo around the world and into someones business or their home is a pretty risky endeavor. It is! Gateway O.T performs Inside and White Glove delivery services where the building owner or management company requires us to prove we have sufficient insurance coverage while in or on their property. Our Crate and Freight division performs on site packing and crating services for large corporations that require we meet their minimum insurance requirements before we enter their property. Large corporations carry many insurances but have to minimize their risk of claims against those policies by ensuring that the outside contractors they utilize have the coverage needed in case of an accident ...

In this Crisis let me know how horrible I am

This blog has to start the same way most communication starts today with...A Covid-19 Statement: The writer of this blog encourages all readers to have washed hands, and that you have recently sanitized your screen and the keyboard/mouse you are using. It is also best if you are reading this from home since most of America is under "Stay at Home" orders. If you are reading this from work, please go back to doing the 'essential' things you need to do and come back and read this later! If you are sick; I wish you a speedy recovery and hope that you are following the recommendations of your health care professionals. With that out of the way, I would like to talk about Covid-19. As a small business owner of a Transportation-Logistics company, my knowledge of the actual Virus is nothing... ( I should have become a doctor! Sorry mom) so this blog will focus on the impact it has had on small businesses like mine. The U.S Government has recognized the importance of Sma...

You won your Online Auction? Now What?

Gateway Crate and Freight gets a lot of work from people who win online auctions from out of town. Most of these people are out of state and some are even in other countries. We have picked up auction items such as antiques, restaurant equipment, computers, water meter readers, and even a walk through metal detector. Many of our clients do their due diligence BEFORE bidding or purchasing items they may win. Contacting us for a quote on picking up, packing, palletizing, crating and shipping these items gives the prospective buyer a good idea about how much of a "deal" they are actually getting after factoring in packing and transportation. Those that buy first and figure out logistics later find out that the road to great deals online starts with understanding the costs of the entire project, not just the purchase price of the item. Lets look at a recent Gateway Crate and Freight auction purchase project. A Security company in Baltimore, Maryland won an online auc...
