Services at this gateway

Bonded warehousing

Short-term bonded storage and inventory handling for deferred duties.

Drayage & Routing

Timed drayage, cross-dock, and onward routing to Massachusetts lanes.

Customs process — step by step

We prepare entry, ISF/AMS where required, HTS classification, and commercial invoice reconciliation prior to vessel arrival to minimize hold times.

If CBP selects cargo for exam, we coordinate facility access, schedule inspectors, and manage hold notifications to carriers and consignees.

Once released, cargo is picked up by contracted dray carriers and routed to bonded warehouses or directly to Massachusetts delivery points, with ETA updates provided.
