About Space Shipping
Where is Space Shipping located?+
111 Interstate Blvd, Jamesburg, NJ 08831, in Middlesex County directly off NJ Turnpike Exit 8A — midway between Metro New York and Philadelphia.
How long has Space Shipping been in business?+
Since 1992. Space Shipping has held interstate operating authority since 1996 (USDOT 641214, MC 720086).
Are your drivers employees or subcontractors?+
Employees — every driver, dispatcher and warehouse hand is a Space Shipping employee, and every tractor, trailer and straight truck is company-owned. Your freight is never brokered out.
Do you specialize in retail and fashion deliveries?+
Yes. Retail is our core: three decades of last-mile deliveries into malls and brand stores for national fashion and apparel brands. PVH Corp. named Space Shipping its 2011 Zone Carrier of the Year.
Coverage
What areas do you serve directly?+
New Jersey statewide, New York City and Long Island, Westchester, Connecticut's Fairfield and New Haven counties, and Philadelphia with Eastern Pennsylvania — roughly a 100-mile radius of Jamesburg — on our own fleet. The rest of the U.S. and Canada moves through vetted marketing partners.
Which malls do you deliver to?+
The region's major centers, including Garden State Plaza, American Dream, The Mall at Short Hills, Menlo Park, Freehold Raceway, Cherry Hill, Roosevelt Field, The Westchester, The SoNo Collection, Danbury Fair and King of Prussia, plus Manhattan's flagship shopping corridors.
Can you deliver into Manhattan and other tight urban locations?+
Yes — that is our specialty. We run low-height trailers for the Holland and Lincoln tunnels, 28-foot pup trailers and liftgate straight trucks for tight docks and dock-free stops.
How fast is delivery inside your region?+
Freight staged at our dock in the evening is typically delivered the next business day; same-day expedited runs are dispatched on request.
Services & operations
What services do you offer?+
Last-mile retail and mall delivery, LTL, truckload and volume moves, retail pool distribution, shipment consolidation, expedited delivery, dedicated fleet operations, and warehousing and cross-dock at our 41,000 sq ft Jamesburg facility.
Do you offer warehousing and storage?+
Yes. Our 41,000 sq ft Jamesburg facility handles overflow warehousing, cross-dock, pool distribution and consolidation, protected by 16 cameras, a monitored alarm and a single gated entrance.
What is the difference between pool distribution and consolidation?+
Pool distribution breaks one inbound load into many deliveries; consolidation combines many inbound shipments into one delivery. We run both from the same dock.
How do I track my shipment?+
Track and trace in real time through our web portal, retrieve proof of delivery online 24/7, or connect your systems directly via EDI 214 shipment-status feeds. Every vehicle is GPS-tracked around the clock.
Do you support EDI?+
Yes: EDI 210 invoicing and EDI 214 shipment status.
