How to Ship Mixed Pallets Cross-Border Without a Full Trailer

Efficient solutions for partial cross-border shipments

If your shipments include mixed SKUs or partial pallet loads that don’t fill an entire trailer, there are still cost-effective and compliant ways to cross into the U.S. without overpaying.

What qualifies as a mixed pallet shipment?

  • Boxes or products from different orders or POs
  • Multiple customers or SKUs on the same pallet
  • Less than 10 pallets per shipment

Options to avoid full truckload costs:

  • Volume LTL (Less Than Truckload) solutions for 4–12 pallets
  • Cross-docking in San Diego to separate or relabel freight
  • Staging inventory before dispatching smaller batches

Our strategy:

  • Pick up from your Tijuana facility or consolidate at our warehouse
  • Handle customs documentation and Pedimento
  • Deliver to final destination in California or beyond

Industries that benefit most:

  • Consumer goods & retail distribution
  • Medical and electronic device manufacturers
  • Automotive part suppliers
