Transportation to Our Omaha Facility

Cost matters when you move goods. Many companies cut it by working with a third-party logistics (3PL) partner in Omaha.

When you ship across the country, a 3PL can make it fast, simple and affordable. We house your inventory, pull your orders and ship them out. That is all we do at Gratton Warehouse, so we do it well.

You have other things to worry about besides shipping. We ship your products to your final customers. We also store inventory and pick orders. Manufacturers who use just-in-time (JIT) can keep parts with us and keep their on-site stock low. That lowers your overhead and frees up cash too.

The Power of Centralized Location

Our Omaha warehouse sits in the middle of the country. That helps your shipments arrive on time across the U.S. A central spot keeps the cost of outgoing and incoming freight down. When you send truckloads to us, we are not far in any direction. We sit near I-80 with easy access to major routes. That saves time and money for our partners.

Rail Shipping

Rail is not the first thing most people think of. Yet it is one of the most affordable ways to move goods. Gratton Warehouse is near the local railways, so rail is an easy way to reach us.

Trucks and planes often come to mind first, so rail gets overlooked. Yet it costs less and is kinder to the planet. A partner for contract warehousing close to the railroad makes a real difference.

The Advantages of Rail Shipping

Cost Efficiency: Trains move a lot of product at once. That means a lower cost per item. It helps most if you move big loads or heavy items.
Reduced Carbon Footprint: Trains give off far less carbon than trucks or planes. You cut costs and meet green goals.
Reliability: Trains keep to a schedule. Steady delivery times help you plan.
Safety: Rail is one of the safest ways to ship. There is less risk of accidents and damage than with other modes.

Gratton Warehouse Company’s Strategic Location

We are in Omaha, Nebraska, close to the railroad. That lets us take goods by rail at a low cost. Our Nebraska warehouse sits close to I-80 and the rail line.

How This Benefits Your Business

When you choose us as your logistics partner, rail becomes an option. Your goods can come by train. That cuts the cost of long-haul trucking or air freight. It can trim your supply chain costs.

Rail is affordable and gentle on the environment. It suits large loads. Ask us if rail fits your business and your freight.
