Strategic Location

AVP1 is embedded in Humboldt Industrial Park in Hazleton/Hazle Township, a major logistics cluster with direct truck access to I-81 and fast connections to I-80 via the CAN DO Expressway. This position links the Northeast megalopolis (NY/NJ/PA) with inland Pennsylvania and the Midwest, allowing carriers to combine port drayage, regional replenishment, and long-haul linehauls through a single node. The dense concentration of large DCs and trailer parking in the park supports predictable appointment windows and efficient yard and dock turns.
