Abstract
The author has investigated sustainability in freight logistics and identified distance waste reduction cases. The aim of this research study was to reduce distance in freight delivery. To achieve this objective, the author has proposed a mathematical model and discrete event simulation study. For the simulation model, the shortest distance has been selected. According to the extensive simulation analysis approximately 23 % of distance waste could be reduced in freight delivery to storage area. Of course, this number depends significantly on a warehouse layout, operations and material handling equipment used in warehouses.
