Southbound forwarding is the consolidated couriering of a group of individual shipments across the US/Canadian border to a warehouse in the U.S. that breaks the consolidation apart and ships out the individual shipments domestically.

At ProPack, our Blaine, WA, warehouse, just 1 mile south of the Canadian border, uniquely positions us to serve Western Canadian companies looking for efficient distribution in the Pacific Northwest and Western U.S.
