Recovery at the air cargo facility, then straight to the dock or the hangar.
[ WHAT IS AIRPORT RECOVERY ]
The last leg is where air freight loses its time
Your shipment can fly overnight and still spend the next day sitting in the air cargo facility waiting for pickup. Most delays happen after the aircraft lands, not while it is in the air. Airport recovery removes that gap: a driver goes to the air cargo facility as soon as the shipment is released and takes it straight to its destination.
-
01
Collected at release
We watch for the release and send a driver, instead of waiting for the next scheduled run.
-
02
Direct to the destination
Cargo facility to dock or hangar in one move, with no terminal in between.
-
03
Visibility from release to delivery
Confirmation at pickup, through transit and on delivery, so you know exactly when it moved.

[ WHEN TIMING BECOMES CRITICAL ]
Operational situations we handle
-
AOG
Aircraft on ground
The part has landed and the aircraft is still grounded. Recovery starts the moment it is released and runs direct to the hangar.
-
AFTER HOURS
Night and weekend arrivals
Freight lands at 2am. It does not have to sit in the warehouse until the morning pickup run.
-
MISSED PICKUP
Cargo sitting in the warehouse
The scheduled carrier did not collect. We recover the same day, before storage charges start building.
-
LINE DOWN
Components flown in
Parts flown in for a line that is already stopped. Straight from the air cargo facility to the plant floor.
-
CROSS-BORDER
Recovery on the other side
Freight landing in the US or Canada with customs still to clear. Documentation coordinated with your broker before the driver arrives.
