Warehouse of the Week: RLX Solutions — Freight-First Warehousing That Solves Real Logistics Problems

RLX, also known as Riverstone Logistics, earns this week’s Racklify Warehouse of the Week title for their exceptional approach to warehousing—one that puts freight velocity, flexibility, and customer experience at the center of every operation. Unlike traditional 3PLs that treat warehousing as static real estate, RLX treats it as an active, adaptable tool to support the flow of goods. Their nationwide network of owned and partner warehouses helps brands unlock capacity, reduce port congestion risk, and move faster across the last mile.

RLX’s warehousing services aren’t just about space—they’re about solving real problems in real time. Whether you're a shipper facing demurrage at port, a brand needing temporary storage between retail launches, or a distributor managing multi-modal freight, RLX offers logistics infrastructure designed to keep freight moving.

Nationwide Coverage with Local Precision

RLX maintains a nationwide warehouse footprint built from both in-house and partner facilities. This hybrid network enables them to offer localized solutions at national scale—from the port to the final mile. They deploy capacity quickly in high-volume markets, staging inventory closer to demand, reducing transit times, and helping clients dodge costly detention or demurrage charges.

Their approach is uniquely nimble: facilities can be activated as needed, and solutions can be scaled up or down based on seasonality, volume surges, or distribution shifts. This flexibility is critical in today’s volatile supply chain landscape, where unpredictability has become the norm.

Services Designed Around Freight Flow

RLX's warehousing services are designed for freight velocity, not static storage. Their core capabilities include:

• Transloading: Fast container deconsolidation to avoid detention/demurrage at ports.
• Short- and Long-Term Storage: Scalable pallet-level storage with secure handling and clear timeframes.
• Cross-Docking: Quick product movement from inbound to outbound, with staging, relabeling, or light assembly as needed.
• Overflow & Inventory Staging: Ideal for brands launching new SKUs, managing seasonal demand, or redirecting from over-capacity DCs.
• Freight Coordination: Tight communication with carriers and partners to ensure on-time scheduling and clear freight handoffs.

Whether you need a cross-dock solution to support a new retail launch or a container transload to meet a deadline, RLX’s warehousing model is tactical, responsive, and deeply integrated with freight operations.

Technology and Performance That Builds Trust

RLX backs its operations with a clear performance promise: 97.3% damage-free rate, on-time scheduling, and real-time visibility into freight movement.

Clients can track shipments, schedule drop-offs, and coordinate pickups through RLX’s tech-enabled systems. Their team provides full transparency at every touchpoint—from dock availability to inventory levels—so clients can plan with confidence. For time-sensitive or high-volume shippers, this level of control is essential.

They also provide single point-of-contact communication, reducing confusion and delays between teams, terminals, and facilities. It’s logistics with accountability baked in.

Culture of Purpose and Service

At the core of RLX’s operation is a deeply held mission: “Love. Serve. Improve.” This philosophy powers every aspect of the business—from how they treat freight and partners, to how they engage with the communities they operate in.

Their commitment to service is not just internal. RLX supports a number of purpose-driven initiatives, including their ongoing partnership with Congregations for Kids, which helps provide support and supplies to foster children across the U.S.

This alignment between mission-driven leadership and merchant-first logistics makes RLX a standout not just operationally—but culturally as well.
