Tailgate delivery and white-glove services are premium options for expedited freight that go beyond simple dock-to-dock shipping. These services ensure your reliable products and goods are not only delivered quickly but also handled with care and delivered exactly where they need to be on your premises. WTM Logistics offers these specialized services to meet the highest standards of reliable products and goods shipping, as part of our comprehensive logistics services.
In today’s complex supply chain, ‘final-mile’ delivery can be the most crucial aspect. Whether you’re in retail, healthcare, or technology, having your product arrive safely and installed correctly is paramount. These services are a core part of expedited shipping, ensuring the integrity of your valuable cargo.
What is Tailgate Delivery?
Tailgate delivery refers to a service where the driver assists with the unloading process, usually to the end of the truck’s tailgate. This is often used when a receiving location lacks a loading dock or unloading assistance. It’s a great help for businesses that need an extra pair of hands to get their goods off the truck quickly.
What is White-Glove Service?
White-glove service is the highest level of delivery care. It includes inside delivery, unpacking, debris removal, and often, basic assembly or installation. For sensitive equipment, medical devices, or high-end furniture, this service ensures your reliable products are professionally handled, set up, and ready to use. WTM’s white-glove transportation is a testament to our commitment to service.
Expedited Shipping with a Personal Touch
These services are invaluable in the expedited freight context. They save your staff time and protect your goods from damage. WTM helps you find the right logistics approach, which may include dedicated freight to ensure the delivery team is focused on your cargo alone. We will ask for the approximate weight and size of the cargo and the pickup and delivery location to coordinate the appropriate equipment and staff.
