Abandoned Freight Resolution
Legal Due Diligence & Owner Notification

Detailed Freight Assessment & Valuation
Contents are inspected, photographed, and matched with real-time market data to establish true recovery potential.
Strategic Disposition & Channel Distribution
Goods are routed to the highest-value channel—wholesale, export, or recycling—while honoring brand or geographic restrictions.
Compliance Documentation & Final Settlement
You receive a complete audit pack: chain-of-custody, notice logs, sales results, and environmental metrics for any recycled materials.
Turn Abandoned Freight Into Opportunity
Every pallet of unclaimed freight on your dock represents tied-up capital, wasted space, and potential liability exposure. Our comprehensive abandoned freight resolution service transforms this challenge into an opportunity to recover value and reclaim critical operational space.
The Hidden Cost of Unclaimed Inventory
Abandoned freight silently drains your resources through multiple channels:
- Each occupied pallet position costs $1,200-$1,800 annually in direct storage expenses
- Blocked staging areas reduce throughput capacity during peak periods
- Staff working around congestion experience reduced productivity and increased error rates
- Managing exceptions diverts valuable resources away from core business operations
- Premium space allocated to zero-value inventory creates significant opportunity cost
Without a structured resolution process, these costs continue accumulating while recovery potential steadily diminishes. Most operations discover that indirect costs outweigh direct storage expenses by 3-4x, making abandoned freight one of the most expensive forms of supply chain waste.
Navigating the Legal Compliance Maze
The regulatory framework varies significantly by:
- Transportation mode (ocean, air, ground)
- Jurisdiction (state, federal, international)
- Goods classification (general, hazardous, regulated)
- Original shipping terms and documentation
Our meticulous process ensures full compliance with all applicable statutes, including proper notice periods, documentation requirements, and lien provisions. This creates a liability shield that protects your organization from future claims while providing a clear path to lawful disposition.
