What happens when a shipment lands.
Receive
Vendors ship to 20183 Mack Street, Hayward, CA 94545, with your project name on every order. Carriers book a dock appointment, Monday to Friday between 9am and 3pm, and we ask you for the bill of lading.
Inspect, Photograph, and Document
Our Hayward team checks each delivery's packaging against the list you sent us; damage is reported before storage, and cartons are opened and inspected whenever you ask. Each delivery is photographed and filed in Terminal, so the record is waiting when your client asks where the chairs are.
Store
Pieces stay in secured, climate-controlled space, sorted by project, while a Pacific Heights renovation waits on its permits or a Los Altos house waits on its floors.
Deliver and install
On the day you choose, the order crosses the bay to the address, the crew carries each piece to its room and sets it in place, and the packaging goes back on the truck.
See what arrived, without calling.
Every piece is listed in Terminal with its vendor, sidemark, arrival photos and status, so you, your client or the install lead can check the order from anywhere.

What a receiving warehouse does for a Bay Area project
A receiving warehouse accepts your vendors’ freight for you, so nothing is left at a job site with no one there to sign. In Hayward each delivery is photographed, checked against the list you sent us and held in climate-controlled storage, then opened for inspection if you ask. When the house is ready, we deliver and place it.
What we receive
- Upholstery, case goods and dining sets
- Lighting, mirrors and framed art
- Rugs, outdoor furniture and accessories
- FF&E for hotels, offices and showrooms
How it arrives
- Single cartons through to crated, palletized freight
- Oversized pieces that need a dock, not a doorstep
- Custom and one-of-a-kind pieces that cannot be reordered
- Multi-vendor orders that land weeks apart
Who uses receiving in San Francisco.
The dock work is the same for every buyer, but what arrives and what it waits for change from one trade to the next, so each industry below has its own page.
