We know
your world.

Food and beverage is our deepest vertical. All four DAW facilities are food-grade certified, not as an add-on, but as a baseline standard we've maintained for decades. That means when you bring us a food client, we don't need to retrofit anything.

We handle ESL products, aseptic packaging, dairy, dry grocery, frozen (where temperature control is available), and bulk ingredient storage. Our lot tracking, FIFO rotation protocols, and allergen segregation procedures are built to support FDA-regulated environments.

We've handled everything from single-SKU private label runs to multi-SKU Fortune 500 grocery distribution. If it touches food, we know how to store and move it right.

Automotive supply chains don't tolerate errors. A missing lot, a miscounted pallet, a delayed container: these are line-stop events. We handle 3,000+ pallets per year for automotive clients and have built our operations around lot-level traceability and JIT-capable receiving windows.

Our container unloading specialists are experienced with automotive components, premium packaging protection, and the documentation required by OEM and Tier 1 suppliers. We understand PPAP, controlled shipping, and what it takes to stay off an approved supplier list's watchlist.

From aluminum extrusions to seat foam to finished components, if it's going into a vehicle, we know how to handle it.

Metals and raw materials require a different kind of warehousing: heavy floor loads, bulk storage configuration, and weight capture at receiving. We've handled aluminum coil and sheet, ferroalloys, industrial minerals, and specialty chemicals for global trading houses and manufacturers.

Our facilities include high-bay racking for coils and extrusions, open floor zones for bulk pallets and slip-sheet loads, and outdoor overflow with secured fencing for large-volume accumulation. We support import/export workflows and have experience with the documentation requirements for international trade movements.

If your product is heavy, high-value, or requires specialized handling at receiving, we're set up for it.

When a container arrives from overseas, time and accuracy matter. We unload it, inspect the freight, count it piece by piece, and put it away correctly. Our container unloading teams handle 3,000+ containers per year across automotive, metals, food, and general commodity imports. We know what it takes to turn a container fast without losing control of the count.

We support importers and exporters who need more than a dock. We coordinate with customs brokers, manage the paperwork trail for international movements, and stage outbound freight for export consolidation. If your supply chain touches a port, we can handle the warehousing side of it.

Full container. Mixed commodity. LCL consolidation. We've handled it all and we do it at volume.

Agricultural inputs are seasonal, high-volume, and often regulated. Seeds, fertilizers, crop protection chemicals, and organic inputs all require storage that can flex with planting and harvest cycles, with the certification and segregation capability to keep product lines clean.

Our food-grade certified zones are available for organic inputs that require segregation from conventional products. We support bulk and racked configurations, outdoor overflow for volume peaks, and EPA/DOT regulated materials handling for crop protection products.

We've supported ag distributors across the Midwest who need a partner that understands seasonal demand swings and can scale without the typical headaches.
