Capabilities
Dry storage with the handling and visibility around it.
Each program is quoted around its product, volume, timing, handling, reporting, and transportation needs.
Inventory visibility
Pallet tracking, plus sub-pallet item quantity tracking when needed. Inventory reports are available on request or on an agreed schedule.
Release and loading
Scheduled order release, pallet retrieval, and outbound loading, coordinated with your team and carrier.
Flexible operating support
Cross-dock handling when suitable, regional transportation, and structured customer access for approved low-volume pick-and-pack programs.
Who it fits
Built for both small requirements and serious seasonal volume.
We work with commercial customers that need straightforward storage without committing to their own warehouse operation.
- Single-pallet and low-volume small-business storage
- Seasonal agricultural and forestry programs
- Packaged commercial products and palletized inventory
- Overflow, buffer stock, and project-based storage
- Flexible short-term, seasonal, and ongoing programs
Product approval matters. This is commercial warehousing, not household self-storage. Dangerous, hazardous, controlled, or regulated goods require prior review and approval.
Facilities
Multiple buildings, different clear heights, one practical operating team.
Our dry-storage buildings range from approximately 9-foot clear in older areas to substantially higher clear heights elsewhere, with dock-high and grade-level loading available across the operation.
Site controls
Camera-monitored site with controlled warehouse access.
Customer visits and operational access are scheduled with Hawkeye staff so product movement and working areas remain controlled.

1.5B+
Seasonal-program experience
More than 1.5 billion seedlings handled.
Large forestry programs have relied on Hawkeye for seasonal receiving, inventory control, storage, and coordinated releases. That operating discipline also benefits smaller programs: clear intake, accountable quantities, and planned outbound movement.
Transportation and cross-docking
Move product into storage—or through the building.
Hawkeye can provide dry or refrigerated tractor-trailer transportation for full and partial palletized loads. The Okanagan is our core service area, and other BC routes can be arranged in advance, including seasonal seedling loads.
Available by arrangement
- Dry or refrigerated trailer
- Full and partial palletized loads
- Regional and prearranged BC routes
- Cross-docking when product, timing, and facility fit align
We do not offer scheduled parcel, national LTL, or freight-brokerage services.
Frequently asked
What to know before you inquire.
What is the minimum storage volume?
We accept programs starting at one pallet, subject to product fit and available capacity.
Do you use pallet racking?
No. Our dry warehouses use floor and block stacking when the product and pallet configuration are suitable.
Can our team pick and pack its own orders?
For low-volume programs, customer-managed pick and pack can be arranged in a designated area where practical. Visits are scheduled, access is staff-controlled, and Hawkeye operates the forklifts and moves pallets.
Can you track quantities below the pallet level?
Yes. We provide pallet tracking and can track item quantities at the sub-pallet level when a program requires it. Reports can be provided on request or on an agreed schedule.
Do you provide transportation or cross-docking?
Yes. We can arrange regional dry or refrigerated tractor-trailer transportation for full and partial palletized loads, and cross-docking when the product, timing, and facility fit are suitable.
Do you store temperature-sensitive goods?
Dry warehousing is the focus of this page. For products requiring refrigerated storage, see our cold-storage service and tell us the required temperature range.
