Drayage & Inland
International freight still has to reach the port, airport, warehouse or customer. FreightForwarders.us coordinates drayage and inland transportation to connect those locations with the larger air or ocean freight movement.
After freight becomes available, inland transportation can move cargo from a marine terminal or airport cargo facility to a warehouse, distribution center or final consignee. Timing must account for availability, appointment requirements, terminal rules and equipment needs.
Ocean containers may require local movement between a port, rail ramp, warehouse or customer facility. Container size, weight, chassis availability, free time and return requirements can affect how the move is planned.
Not every shipment ends near the gateway. Domestic trucking can connect international freight to customers elsewhere in the United States. That inland leg can be planned together with the international movement to create a more coherent door-to-door solution.
If cargo needs to be unloaded, reorganized or staged after pickup, it can move through warehousing or cross-dock operations before final delivery. request a freight quote.
Drayage is short-distance freight transportation commonly used to move containers or cargo between ports, rail ramps, warehouses and nearby facilities.
Yes. Pickup and delivery legs can be coordinated around the international freight movement when service is available for the lane.
Container or shipment details, port or terminal, pickup availability, delivery address, equipment requirements and timing constraints are typically needed.
Inland trucking can be planned beyond local drayage when the shipment requires domestic movement to or from a freight gateway.
