Freight delivery and airport cargo recovery in Fife.
About 20 miles south of SEA, roughly 25-35 minutes on I-5. Fife sits directly on I-5 at Exits 136 and 137, with SR 167's southern terminus feeding into it, so it is the most freeway-accessible stop in the south end. Its dual role as both a destination and a drayage staging area makes it a common last stop before or first stop after a Tacoma port run.
Recovery into Fife
Recovering your air freight from SEA to Fife.
We collect import freight at the airline and handler warehouses at Seattle-Tacoma International and run it out to Fife. You confirm the shipment is released and good to go; that is the job of the person who hires us. Once you have, we commit the truck.
Send dispatch the Delivery Order, the master and house bill numbers, the piece count and weight, the warehouse location, and the consignee with their receiving hours. With those in hand we can tell you honestly whether the shipment makes today’s cycle or tomorrow morning’s.
Fife receiving realities.
Fife exists because of I-5 bisecting the city. Warehousing, distribution, and trucking are the city's central commerce, and Class A distribution buildings like the Fife I-5 Commerce Center sit alongside dozens of trucking terminals, container yards, freight brokerages, and 3PL cross-docks. Lynden Transport and other Alaska-trade carriers stage here, and the 20th Street East, 70th Ave East, and Pacific Highway East corridors are essentially continuous truck yards and warehouse docks.

Fife freight questions.
How quickly can you get freight from SEA to Fife?
About 20 miles south of SEA, roughly 25-35 minutes on I-5. Fife sits directly on I-5 at Exits 136 and 137, with SR 167's southern terminus feeding into it, so it is the most freeway-accessible stop in the south end. Its dual role as both a destination and a drayage staging area makes it a common last stop before or first stop after a Tacoma port run. In practice the drive is rarely the constraint. Release status at the warehouse and the receiving hours at the far end decide the day far more often than traffic does. Give dispatch the arrival notice time and the consignee's receiving window and you will get a straight answer about whether it lands today or tomorrow morning.
