3rd Party Logistics · 3PL

Why pay
the trucking company?

We hold the inventory in California and release it when your customer needs it. Warehousing, distribution, transportation, and inventory management — integrated and coordinated under one roof.

Why Consider Miles Chemical 3PL

Lead Times
Everyone is cutting inventory

Including your customers. Local stock is the only way to meet a shrinking lead time without holding the carrying cost yourself.

Cost
Freight from across the country

LTL from the Midwest or East Coast eats margin on every order. Ship it here once in bulk instead.

Profitability
Why pay the trucking company

Freight margin that currently leaves your business stays in it when the inventory is already local.

Satisfaction
Materials available 24/7/365

Your customer's emergency stops being your emergency when the product is already in California.

Integration & Coordination

Miles Chemical can facilitate
your logistics needs.

Greater flexibility. Improved operational efficiency. Enhanced customer service capabilities. Reduction of capital expenditures on equipment and distribution centers you'd otherwise have to build.
