How to Schedule Freight Delivery

When you send freight to Airhouse, all inbound freight shipments require an appointment in order to receive at a warehouse dock. Unscheduled freight may be turned away. We will need information to prepare accordingly and ensure team members and docks are available to unload. Please follow the below steps:

⚠️

All freight deliveries must be scheduled 48 hours in advance.

Create an inventory shipment in Restock
Book freight shipping with your preferred carrier
After booking freight, email receiving@airhouse.io with the following information, 48 hours in advance of delivery:

Company name
Inventory shipment ID from Restock
Requested delivery date and Time
How the shipment is packed (carton, pallet, container) and how much of Eech
Is the shipment palletized or floor-loaded?

Palletized - The shipment is secured on pallets in the container and can be removed with a forklift
Floor-loaded - The shipment is is loaded loosely, i.e. on cartons, and requires more labor and time to unload

Will this be a live unload or a drop?

Live Unload - The driver will wait at the warehouse while they unload the container
Drop - The driver will drop off the container at the warehouse and then return later when unloading is complete

Vehicle size and type
Name of freight carrier and their email/phone number
Bill of lading or equivalent documentation with shipment information (can be exported from Restock)
Container number (if applicable)
Attach the packing list

Await confirmation from Airhouse
