Old Dominion Relocates Colorado Service Center

New, Grand Junction location allows for better coverage of Pacific Northwest Region

Grand Junction, Colo. (June 22, 2016) —Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc. hosts an open house today for its enhanced Colorado service center location.

The Grand Junction Service Center relocated to 687 Long Acre Drive in Grand Junction, CO 81505. The 38-door facility is located just off I-70 and allows for better reach, efficiency and security in operations.


The North Carolina-based less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier, which is over 80 years in business, has three service centers in Colorado. Along with Grand Junction, there are locations in Denver and Colorado Springs.

"This new, seven-acre service center will benefit the Pacific Northwest region and its continued growth," said Scott Goodrich, OD regional vice president of the Pacific Northwest. "Grand Junction's Service Center relocation allows Old Dominion to provide better efficiency, and room for future growth and employment."

With the large energy industry around Grand Junction, this facility is necessary to continue to ensure premium service to customers.

The Grand Junction Service Center provides service to a number of cities in the area, including Grand Junction, Fruita, Clifton, Orchard Mesa, Delta, Montrose, Gunnison, Crested Butte, Telluride, Rifle, Glenwood Springs, Aspen, Vail, Avon, Craig and Steamboat Springs.

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.
