UPS Seeks to Avert Holiday Shipping Crunch With Mobile Villages
2014-09-20 09:25:57| Air Courier - Topix.net
United Parcel Service Inc., working to prevent a repeat of 2013's holiday crunch, plans to open 14 temporary shipping facilities it calls "mobile distribution center villages" to help expedite deliveries. The groups of modular structures -- similar to portable school buildings, pieced together in parking lots with dozens of bays that UPS trucks back up to -- are part of $500 million in capital spending being expedited for the seasonal holiday peak.
