Freight Depot
A Freight Depot is a facility where goods are received, stored, and dispatched for transportation. It serves as a central hub for the movement of cargo, often connected to various transportation modes such as trucks, trains, and ships. Freight depots play a crucial role in supply chain logistics, ensuring that products are efficiently transferred from one mode of transport to another.
These depots typically include loading docks, storage areas, and administrative offices. They may handle a wide range of goods, from raw materials to finished products. Efficient operations at a freight depot help reduce shipping times and costs, benefiting businesses and consumers alike.
