Receiving & Distribution

Rail Car

Pacific Fluids has existing rail car siding adjacent to the west property line. We are serviced by Tacoma Beltline by both the Union Pacific and Burlington Northern and can accommodate jumbo rail cars. We have four rail car locations and a steam line capable of heating four rail cars.

Truck and Trailer / Semi-Trailer

Pacific Fluids has trucks and trailers with 105,500 lb. capacity and semi-trailers with about 53,000 pound capacities each.

Package Trucks

Pacific Fluids has its own dry van trailers to handle pick-up/ delivery of package goods, with direct access to multiple 53’ trailers if necessary.

Marine Vessels / Barges

Pacific Fluids contracts and has access to barge lines which assist us to make deliveries to ships at anchor and to docks that are not accessible to our truck fleet by land.

Quality Control

We require a certificate of analysis on all of the products that we receive. All products received and delivered have the typical physical test performed including viscosity, flash, API gravity, water content, particle analysis and sensory test unless pre-packaged in drums, pails or quarts. These values are compared against the product specifications.
