XPO Logistics announces plan to add more LTL dock doors

Greenwich, Conn.-based freight transportation services provider XPO Logistics said today it is opening up two new less-than-truckload (LTL) terminals in the second quarter, which are located in Adelanto, Calif. and Conley Ga. A company spokesperson told LM that with these new terminals, XPO is adding capacity in two strategically important areas, as well as moving XPO closer to one of its stated five-point LTL action plans: to open 900 doors by the end of 2023. With the two new openings, XPO said it will have added 345 cumulative net new doors under the plan.
