Averitt expands San Antonio facility with new warehouse and 78 cross-dock doors

Averitt upgrades San Antonio, Texas, facility

Nov. 7, 2024
The service center now features a total of 78 cross-dock doors, up from the original 38.

Averitt recently opened its expanded San Antonio, Texas, service center, designed to meet the growing needs of customers in the region. This facility has been upgraded to include additional dock doors, a larger warehouse, and improved infrastructure to streamline operations and improve service offerings. 

The service center now features a total of 78 cross-dock doors, up from the original 38. A key highlight of the expansion is the newly constructed 85,000-square-foot Averitt Distribution and Fulfillment warehouse, which is directly connected to the cross-dock doors. According to the company, the addition of the new warehouse will allow Averitt to further support freight distribution across the U.S.-Mexico border, providing customers on both sides with faster and more efficient service.

“These upgrades to our San Antonio facility are a major step forward in our ability to serve our customers,” David Parrish, San Antonio service center director, said. “This expansion and upgrade will provide the resources necessary to deliver the high-quality service that Averitt customers expect. The maintenance facility and Driver Support Center will also be great additions to support our drivers.” 

Though most of the expansion is complete, the new maintenance facility is set to open in 2025. Once finished, it will feature two service bays, a pull-through fuel bay for two tractors at a time, and a drive-through truck wash equipped with undercarriage spray. In addition, the Driver Support Center will offer laundry facilities, a lounge, workout room, and showers, providing associates with a comfortable and supportive environment while on the road.
