A. Duie Pyle opens up new Hagerstown, Maryland Integrated Logistics Center

Westchester, Penn.-based freight transportation and supply chain services provider A. Duie Pyle said last week that it has officially opened up its integrated logistics center, which is in close proximity to Hagerstown, Maryland.

The company said that this new 266,585 square-foot facility is comprised of a less-than-truckload (LTL) cross-dock, full-service fleet maintenance garage, office, and warehouse space. And it added that in order to meet surges in shipping and COVID-19-driven e-commerce demand, the company has filed permitting for a 100,000 square-foot warehouse.

What’s more, A. Duie Pyle said that this new facility provides shippers located in this region with same- and next-day distribution, assembly and value-added project capabilities, final-mile delivery options, improved shipping integrity, extended cut times, consolidation and de-consolidation, and complete integration of Pyle’s LTL, Logistics, Dedicated and Warehouse and Distribution solutions.

“The expansion of our operations in the Hagerstown area will lead to the creation of new jobs and gives our loyal customers in the region a more comprehensive experience,” said John Luciani, COO of LTL Solutions at A. Duie Pyle, in a statement. “This state-of-the-art facility will allow us to provide a complete range of integrated transportation, warehousing and distribution services, while also improving customer service, controlling costs and streamlining Pyle’s operations. Offering these enhanced services is more important than ever before, as more people are relying on the expedited delivery of their goods.”

In a LinkedIn post, Russ Miceli, Vice President- Integrated Solutions at A. Duie Pyle Inc. wrote that the new Hagerstown Integrated Logistics Center is open and ready to offer new value and possibilities for shippers’ supply chains.

“Our new Integrated Logistics Center consist of 200,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space that is expandable to 300,000 sq. ft. and attached to an 80 door cross-dock,” he wrote. “This new facility sits on 38 acres, has close access to I-81 and I-70, and is in close proximity to both CSX and Norfolk Southern intermodal yards. Our Integrated facility will provide customers with next day LTL delivered service throughout most of the Northeast, with your products moving from inventory directly to destination service center. With assets positioned to allow your purchase orders to be picked later in the day coupled with next day service to your customers in the Northeast, our Integrated Logistics Center will provide a high level of service predictability and quality. With this new facility, we now have 11 strategically located warehouses and almost 3 million sq. ft. of space in four Northeast States.”

In early August, A. Duie Pyle announced it expanded its Westfield, Mass.-based Integrated Distribution Center, which re-opened late last month.

Company officials said that this expansion includes a new Accessory Transfer and Distribution Center to the current location at 66 Ampad Road in Westfield, Mass. And it also is comprised of a 35,500 square-foot service center and an 8,800 square-foot fleet maintenance facility.
