Portland Logistics Company Independent Dispatch Leases Large Warehouse Space

Independent Dispatch (IDI) is a 40-year-old transportation and logistics company that is the go-to firm for dozens of companies seeking efficient, dependable and flexible transportation services. Serving such reputable Portland companies like Columbia Sportswear, Gunderson, and Precision Castparts, IDI can handle almost every transportation challenge from huge pieces of equipment in the mining and aerospace industries; big heavy parts for railcars; gargantuan pumps for oil or energy projects, or the efficient movement of hundreds of shipping containers full of product, IDI can be counted on.

When they ran into difficulties with a local warehousing company for one of their best clients, Greg Gilbert, president of IDI, turned to Todd and Cascade Commercial to find a replacement situation. He had to move quick! Within days Greg and IDI had information on 5 different warehouse options near their HQ and they were out looking at the possibilities within a week, and then had an acceptable LOI agreement on close to 80,000 sf of space in the Rivergate area days later, for a move-in less than 3 months from the when the call went out.
