The space includes a facility with 11 acres for receiving and storing cargo. Two warehouses can offer 127,000 square feet of covered storage. The dry bulk dock can quickly and efficiently move various heavy mineral bulk commodities with a telescoping conveyor system. Four rail support tracks and one working track serve the facility, which includes “a bottom dump system where products can be conveyed to one of two storage buildings.”
“This dry bulk facility is a unique opportunity, especially on the U.S. West Coast,” said port chief commercial officer Alex Strogen. “With the port’s unparalleled access to river, road and rail, shippers bypass the facility traffic and road congestion of other West Coast ports, improving transit times and overall logistics.”
