Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc. of Thomasville, NC announced plans to develop a 19-acre site located on the SEC of Crismon Road and Pecos Road in Mesa. The proposed project consists of a 5,450 square foot office building and 47KSF of warehouse space, which will serve as a cross dock service center facility.
In a cross dock facility, transported goods are unloaded from a tractor trailer within the interior dock area for the short term and then subsequently loaded onto another trailer bound for another destination in the Phoenix area or to the broader national market.
The 60-foot wide interior space has 103 doors and one ramp, and “the intention is not to store goods or materials outside in the yard enclosure, but to transfer goods from one truck to another in the cross dock building space,” according the application.
