1 - Produce Receiving & Planning
All shipments begin with careful coordination in Arizona, where we receive and prepare produce for transportation.
From this point, each load is planned based on volume, urgency, destination, and temperature requirements to ensure proper handling from start to finish.
Key focus:
- Organized receiving process
- Load planning based on produce needs
- Preparation for FTL or LTL movement

3 - FTL Produce Transportation Process
For partial loads, NOVALUX operates a structured consolidation process.
Our bobtail collects produce from multiple origins and consolidates shipments at a designated warehouse.
Once consolidated, the load is carefully planned and assigned to a refrigerated carrier for delivery.
Operational flow:
- Bobtail pickup and consolidation
- Warehouse coordination
- Load planning and Carrier assignment
- Same monitoring and update process as FTL
The only difference is consolidation — the level of care and communication remains the same.

Clients are informed:

- While the shipment is in route (location updates)
- When the driver checks in at the consignee

This ensures transparency, accountability, and peace of mind.
