November 30, 2022

Leading
e-commerce parcel carrier LaserShip/OnTrac has opened a brand-new 326,973 square
foot sort center in the greater Philadelphia metropolitan area and invested in
automation to increase capacity and empower retailers with faster delivery at a
lower cost.
“Our continued investment in network infrastructure is the direct result of our
retailers’ need to diversify their carrier mix and reach their customers with
faster, reliable last-mile delivery,” says Josh Dinneen, Chief Commercial
Officer of LaserShip/OnTrac. “We’re excited to open our new sort center ahead of
this year’s holiday shopping season, and we look forward to welcoming more
members of the community to our team.”
The state-of-the-art sort center, located at 701 Crossroads Boulevard in Logan
Township, New Jersey, will facilitate deliveries to over 250 million consumers
across LaserShip/OnTrac’s hub-and-spoke residential e-commerce delivery network,
which spans 30 states and Washington, D.C. LaserShip/OnTrac has also invested in
a fully automated small package sorter to increase the facility’s sorting
capacity to 31,000 packages per hour, effectively doubling the capacity in the
densely populated tri-state area of New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
“Providing
faster delivery services is extremely important to the region’s businesses to
stay competitive and serve the needs of their customers,” said Janet Garraty,
executive director of the Gloucester County Chamber of Commerce, Gloucester
County, NJ. “The new sort center will support the supply chain operations for
many of our region’s businesses. We look forward to welcoming LaserShip/OnTrac
to our community.”
In addition to expanding its infrastructure, LaserShip/OnTrac plans to add over
400 full-time and seasonal workers.
The opening of the new sort center will enable retailers to take advantage of
LaserShip/OnTrac’s coast-to-coast delivery service, which helps them reach
consumers in the country’s most populated regions with faster, reliable home
delivery. Launched as a product of the companies’ 2021 merger and in response to
overwhelming customer feedback for a proven alternative to national carriers,
the transcontinental network connects LaserShip and OnTrac’s complementary East
and West Coast delivery footprints to move packages across the country in as
little as three days.
