    FAQ

    Distribution Center Construction Questions

    How long does distribution center construction take?

    Distribution center construction timelines depend on facility size and complexity. Last-mile delivery stations (50,000-100,000 SF) typically take 8-12 months. Regional distribution centers (150,000-300,000 SF) generally require 12-16 months. Large-scale logistics hubs (500,000+ SF) may take 16-24 months. Fast-track construction using tilt-up concrete and design-build delivery can compress schedules significantly when time-to-market is critical.  

    Distribution center construction costs in Georgia and Florida typically range from $75-$100 per square foot for basic shell buildings, $100-$150 per square foot for fully equipped facilities with high dock ratios and sortation infrastructure, and $150-$200+ per square foot for highly automated facilities with conveyor systems and robotics infrastructure. Costs vary based on clear height, dock configuration, automation requirements, and site conditions. 

    Yes, we build distribution centers designed to accommodate automated sortation systems, conveyor networks, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and goods-to-person systems. This includes reinforced and super-flat floors for AGVs, heavy electrical infrastructure for automation equipment, higher clear heights for vertical conveyors, and IT infrastructure for warehouse management systems. We coordinate with automation integrators during design to ensure the building supports your technology investment. 

    We build distribution centers with dock configurations optimized for your throughput requirements. This includes standard dock-high doors (typically one per 5,000-10,000 SF), speed bays for high-frequency deliveries, drive-in doors for floor-loaded freight, cross-dock configurations with opposing dock walls, and mixed configurations with both inbound and outbound staging areas. Dock equipment includes levelers, seals, shelters, lights, and restraints selected for your operational needs. 

    Absolutely. Last-mile delivery facilities have unique requirements including high door counts for delivery van staging, driver amenities and break rooms, vehicle charging infrastructure for electric delivery vans, package sortation areas, and secure parking for delivery vehicles. We build last-mile stations for major e-commerce retailers, logistics providers, and parcel carriers throughout Georgia and Florida’s major metro areas.
