What is Drayage?

Intermodal drayage is a critical link in the supply chain that involves the short-distance transportation of shipping containers between key intermodal points — like ports, rail terminals, and warehouses.

Why its Crucial

Drayage might be a short leg of the journey, but it’s one of the most time-sensitive and regulated. Delays, missed appointments, or incorrect paperwork at ports or rail ramps can cause significant costs — which is why having a reliable drayage partner is crucial.

How it Works

When goods arrive by ship or train in a container, they usually need to be moved a short distance by truck to another facility for further handling. This “short haul” is what we call drayage.

For example:

A container arrives at the Port of Los Angeles it’s trucked to a nearby rail yard or warehouse.

Or, a container comes off a train in Chicago it’s delivered to a regional distribution center.

This service is essential for connecting global freight movements with local delivery points efficiently and on time.
