Dangerous Goods (DG) & Hazmat Warehousing

Licensed DG Storage — Richmond, BC

Flagship Logistics is licensed to store and handle dangerous goods (DG) and hazardous materials (hazmat) in compliance with BC provincial and federal Transport Canada regulations. Many Vancouver-area warehouses turn DG freight away — we don't.

Contact us with your product's UN number and DG class and we'll confirm our ability to accommodate your specific goods.

Distribution Across Metro Vancouver and Canada

Storage alone isn't enough — you need goods moving. Our distribution network covers all of Metro Vancouver with regular scheduled runs to Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, Delta, Langley, Abbotsford, and the rest of the Fraser Valley. For national distribution, we leverage our established carrier network to move freight to any Canadian province, typically with 1–5 day transit depending on destination.

For US distribution, our cross-border services connect your Richmond warehouse to key US markets. Many of our clients import through Vancouver and use our Richmond facility as their primary North American distribution hub, shipping both to Canadian and American customers from a single location.

🇺🇸 Warehousing in Canada for US Companies

US companies don't need a Canadian office or entity to use Flagship Logistics. Our Richmond warehouse is ~3 hours north of Seattle and approximately 45 minutes from the Peace Arch border crossing — making it one of the most strategically located Canadian warehousing options for American importers and distributors.

We receive containers directly off Port Metro Vancouver terminals, unload and inspect your goods, manage your inventory, and ship to both Canadian and US customers — all from a single Richmond facility. US companies from Washington State, Oregon, California, and beyond use us as their turn-key Canadian distribution hub.

What is the average cost of warehousing in Vancouver?

Warehousing costs in Metro Vancouver vary based on location, type of storage, duration, and services required. Pallet storage typically ranges from $25–$60/pallet/month in the Richmond and Delta areas. We offer transparent, all-inclusive pricing with no hidden fees — contact us for a custom quote based on your specific needs.

Do you offer short-term warehousing in Richmond, BC?

Yes. We offer flexible short-term storage agreements — even on a month-to-month basis — for businesses needing temporary overflow space, seasonal storage, or staging for a large import shipment. We don't require long-term contracts for short-term storage needs.

Can you receive containers directly from Port Metro Vancouver?

Absolutely. We coordinate port drayage from all Port Metro Vancouver terminals (Deltaport, Vanterm, Centerm) directly to our Richmond warehouse. This is one of our most popular service combinations — drayage plus warehousing as a single managed solution, eliminating the need to coordinate with separate providers.

Do you handle warehousing for dangerous goods (DG) or hazmat?

Yes. Flagship Logistics is licensed to store and handle dangerous goods (DG) and hazardous materials in compliance with BC provincial and federal Transport Canada regulations. We accept flammable liquids, flammable solids, aerosols, corrosives, oxidizers, lithium batteries (UN3480/UN3481), and Class 9 miscellaneous dangerous goods. Many warehouses in Metro Vancouver won't touch DG freight — we will. Contact us with your product's UN number and class to confirm.
