Modular Loading Dock Adds Shipping Capacity Anywhere

Dockzilla’s Portable Loading Dock fuels forklift operations that’s 5x faster than manually loading trailers. Architecturally-designed per OSHA and IBC codes, these modular structures are ideal for adding shipping capacity and for use at grade-level buildings (without dock high doors). These portable loading docks feature a patented design that absorbs trailer impact forces, so the dock won’t slide out of place when trailers back into the unit.  And there’s more Dockzilla ingenuity to check out with these exclusive options:

  • Cheesegrater® Hydraulic Dock Leveler: features traction “grating” & operates via a simple push-button
  • Solar Power: to initiate hydraulics for remote loading operations away from a power source
  • Mobility: configured to add a wheel base and solid 20″ wheels to move the loading dock often

Architecturally-Sound, Boosts Velocity

  • Increase productivity at facilities without loading docks
  • Add loading capacity to meet shipping demands
  • Pre-engineered for employee & forklift safety per OSHA/IBC
  • Hydraulic and solar powered dock leveler options available for high-speed or remote applications

“Our company owns a grade-level facility we use for a cross docking operation, and we wanted to add a loading dock without undergoing a large-scale rehab project. With Dockzilla’s Portable Loading Dock, we’ve been able to leverage the available space on our property to load and unload trailers. We can move and utilize this investment if, and when our needs change.”
