Freight & Courier Service in Burbank

~14 mi from the LA yard · 25–45 min · same-day service available

Cargo Taxi Deliveries serves Burbank with same-day courier and palletized freight, including air-freight recovery at Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) and studio, post-production and media equipment runs. Burbank is roughly 14 miles from the Los Angeles yard, with typical pickup inside 45 to 75 minutes.

Burbank freight is dominated by two things that exist almost nowhere else: the studios and the airport. Studio and post-production work generates a constant flow of equipment, set material, hard drives and media that moves on short notice and to a schedule set by a production rather than by a dock. Lot access is its own skill — a drive-on pass, a specific gate, a named stage, and a security process that does not care that the delivery is urgent.

Hollywood Burbank Airport is the quieter, faster alternative to LAX for air freight, and that is the main reason to route through it. Recovery and tender at BUR clears in a fraction of the time an LAX cargo building takes, and for a shipment where the ground leg is the bottleneck it is frequently worth routing a flight into Burbank specifically to avoid the LAX queue.

Questions

Burbank, answered.

Can you recover air freight from Hollywood Burbank Airport?

Yes. BUR recovery is routine and is usually considerably faster to clear than LAX, which is why it is worth routing a shipment through Burbank when the ground leg is the bottleneck. Give dispatch the airway bill and the handling agent and the truck is timed against the release rather than the flight arrival.

Do you deliver onto studio lots in Burbank?

Yes, with the access arranged in advance. Lots need a drive-on pass, a named gate and often a specific stage or building, and none of that can be sorted at the gate. Give dispatch the production contact and the delivery location when booking and the pass is in place before the truck arrives.
