Located in the Northeastern Industrial Park (Albany, N.Y.), Distribution Unlimited’s bulk transfer operation has 200+ acres, 16 miles of rail and an experienced, short line railroad in SMS Rail Lines.

The advantages of the Park have enabled Distribution Unlimited to experience a 140% increase in activity in its bulk transfer operations with projections to nearly double before 1st quarter 2012.

Currently the terminal brings in 3,000 railcars per year (equivalent to approximately 12,000 truckloads) of mixed commodities. Product is being received from all over the United States and Canada in commodities such as feed ingredients, fertilizers, grains, chlorides, plastic, starch, steel, supersack materials, machinery, poles, automobiles and more. Once railed in, the large volume is transferred from rail car to truck by conveyor, pneumatic pump or heavy lift equipment for final delivery to customers.
