A. Duie Pyle Opens Bronx Service Center

A. Duie Pyle (Pyle), a leader in asset and non-asset-based transportation and supply chain solutions in the Northeast, has opened its newest transportation service center in Bronx, New York.

Strategically located on the East River in Hunts Point, an industrial neighborhood in the southwest Bronx, Pyle’s service center and Express Solutions fleet of eco-friendly electric hybrid straight trucks will facilitate business-to-business and business-to-consumer deliveries in areas with restricted or limited access.

This will ultimately increase freight velocity and flexibility for the company’s many New York metro clients. Pyle’s new service center provides easy access to the Bruckner Expressway (I-278), which connects to I-95 and all major northeast metropolitan areas. Pyle is uniquely positioned to reduce the impacts of congestion that carriers often experience entering and exiting the city from New Jersey during the day.

“For many years, Pyle has been recognized for providing comprehensive and direct service in metro New York. The Bronx is an ideal location for us to build on this commitment to our customers,” said Randy Swart, chief operating officer for A. Duie Pyle. “The new service center allows us to provide our current and future customers with unique transportation options in New York, expand Pyle’s expedited service capabilities in the area and develop quality capacity throughout the busiest and most dense region in the U.S.”

The Bronx location will bring approximately 100 new jobs to the area, including opportunities for truck drivers, fleet techs, dockworkers and support personnel. By entering the area, Pyle’s customized service offerings will allow Pyle to meet the unique needs of each customer and will also allow Pyle customers to strategically source multiple solutions with enhanced delivery service and comprehensive expedited and same day delivery options.

Pyle’s Bronx service center will include 77 doors for progressive loading and unloading, a full-service fleet maintenance garage, 6,846 square feet of office space, and a three-deck parking structure.
