Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
What is intermodal transportation?
Intermodal transportation moves freight using multiple modes — typically truck and rail — under a single coordinated plan. Containers transfer between modes without being opened, reducing handling and damage risk.
Which rail ramps do you serve?
We serve BNSF and Union Pacific rail ramps in the Pacific Northwest, including the Seattle International Gateway and Tacoma ramp facilities.
Is intermodal cheaper than over-the-road trucking?
For shipments over 500 miles, intermodal is often 10-20% cheaper than OTR trucking. It also offers better capacity availability during peak seasons and lower carbon emissions.
Do you provide nationwide intermodal service?
Yes. While our drayage operations are based in the Pacific Northwest, we provide nationwide delivery through our extended network of freight corridors and partner relationships.
What types of containers do you handle?
We handle standard 20-ft, 40-ft, and 45-ft containers, as well as overweight and specialized containers up to 64,000 lbs using our tri-axle and quad-axle chassis.
