Why inventory gets stuck in Chicago
Nearly every transcontinental rail move touches Chicago, which makes it a place where inventory both arrives and gets stuck. Elk Grove Village alone is one of the densest industrial parks in the country, and the Joliet-Elwood logistics parks hold container volume at a scale that produces regular full-truckload surplus.
Where we collect around Chicago
We work across the metro, and we are set up around the largest rail intermodal complex in North America plus the CenterPoint inland port at Joliet and Elwood. These are the submarkets we run most often, though anywhere in the area is workable.
Freight moves on I-55, I-80, I-90, and I-294, with roughly 1-2 days transit from our Pennsylvania hub. Chicago is part of our wider Illinois coverage.

Selling excess inventory in Chicago — FAQ
Do you pick up in Chicago?
Yes, throughout the metro, including Elk Grove Village, Bolingbrook, Romeoville, and Joliet. We arrange and pay for the freight, running out of our Pennsylvania hub on roughly 1-2 days transit. You do not need to book a carrier or bring anything to a terminal.
What kind of inventory do you buy in Chicago?
Overstock, closeouts, customer returns, shelf pulls, discontinued lines, and whole-warehouse clearouts. Locally we see a lot of general merchandise, housewares, and food and grocery, which reflects what Chicago actually distributes and manufactures.
How small a load will you collect here?
There is no hard minimum. Chicago sits on I-55 and I-80, so we run lanes through the metro regularly and can consolidate a partial load rather than pricing it as a dedicated trip. A few pallets is worth asking about.
How fast can you get here?
Transit from our Pennsylvania hub is roughly 1-2 days. Once you accept an offer we schedule pickup around your dock hours and any building or landlord constraints. If you are working to a lease deadline, tell us the date up front.
Will my inventory show up in local stores?
Not where it would collide with your business. Your goods are never listed publicly, and we place through secondary-market channels selected to stay away from your customers. If you need specific local accounts excluded, we put that in the agreement.
