DHL Express, a provider of international express shipping services, has relocated its service center to a new, state-of-the-art facility in McCook, Illinois.<\/p>\n

The 100,000-sq. ft. center \u2014 more than twice the size of the previous location \u2014represents a $32 million investment, including capital expenditures and a 10-year lease.<\/p>\n

DHL Express is a provider of international shipping services.<\/p><\/div>\n

Located at 9150 W 55th Street, the facility processes both international and domestic shipments and features a retail ServicePoint counter for direct customer service. Equipped with advanced automation technology typically found in DHL\u2019s hubs and gateway facilities, the McCook center utilizes automated shoe sorters, singulation, accumulation slides, and state-of-the-art robotic flyer sortation.<\/p>\n

These enhancements are designed to streamline processing, accelerate delivery times, and improve safety for local staff.<\/p>\n

Located at 9150 W 55th Street, the facility processes both international and domestic shipments.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cOur new facility in the Chicago market represents a significant leap forward in our commitment to technology, efficiency, and service excellence,\u201d said Greg Hewitt, CEO of DHL Express U.S.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy leveraging advanced automation, we\u2019re not only enhancing our operational capabilities but also ensuring that our couriers can spend more time serving customers on the road.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"

The 100,000-sq. ft. center \u2014 more than twice the size of the previous location \u2014represents a $32 million investment.<\/p><\/div>\n

The automated sortation system can sort up to 4,500 conveyable pieces per hour, tripling throughput which reduces morning sort time from more than two hours to under an hour.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result, DHL couriers will be able to start their routes one hour earlier, enhancing time-definite delivery service, particularly for noon deliveries. Additionally, many routes from the current service center in Franklin Park (ORD) will be managed at the new McCook facility, improving service in Chicago\u2019s central business district by providing access to additional load capacity and automated sorting infrastructure.<\/p>\n

With its expanded capacity, the new facility also increases from 35 to 96 vehicle load positions to accommodate future growth.<\/p>\n

Supporting DHL Group\u2019s sustainability goals, the service center includes 96 PowerFlex charging stations to aid in the electrification of 66% of its pickup and delivery fleet by 2030.<\/p>\n

Enhancements are designed to streamline processing, accelerate delivery times, and improve safety for local staff.<\/p><\/div>\n

Looking ahead, DHL plans to use the McCook facility as a blueprint for automating pickup and delivery Service Centers in other large, strategic markets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
