Yes. There are several good cross-docking/transloading options around the Port of Los Angeles, especially in Wilmington, Carson, Compton, and Long Beach.
For a straightforward ocean container → domestic trailer transload with minimal storage, I'd start with Year Round Transload, STG, and Penske. For heavy/overweight cargo, I'd also contact SPF.
The Port of Los Angeles itself notes that its surrounding logistics ecosystem includes extensive warehousing and FTZ facilities, while its rail network connects directly to the national rail system—useful if your transload involves rail as well as trucking.
If you tell me (1) cargo type, (2) number of containers/month, (3) whether it's floor-loaded or palletized, and (4) whether you need short-term storage, drayage, or customs/FTZ, I can narrow this to the 3 best facilities and their contact details.

Yes. I found several port-adjacent cross-docking/transloading facilities around the Port of Los Angeles. For general import containers, I’d start with these:
A particularly relevant option is SHIPIT Logistics, which advertises a 105,000-sq-ft transloading/cross-docking facility with 15 loading docks at 13500 S. Figueroa St., about 20 minutes from the LA/Long Beach port complex.
The Port of Los Angeles itself also has a sizable network of warehouses and explicitly supports transloading operations; its current supply-chain information lists facilities at multiple berths and notes rail accessibility at several locations.
For standard import containers → domestic truckload/LTL, I'd prioritize STG, PCC, and Eight Star.
For bonded/CFS requirements, look closely at STG or Imperial CFS.
For fast container devanning/cross-docking without much storage, Year Round Transload or SHIPIT look especially relevant.
If you tell me cargo type, number of containers/month, whether it's floor-loaded or palletized, and destination (e.g. Midwest, California, nationwide), I can narrow this to the 3 best facilities and compare their location, dock capacity, rail/drayage capability, and likely fit.
