Smarter Shipping: Truck + Rail Solutions
Leverage the power of intermodal transportation for cost-effective, reliable, and sustainable long-distance freight. Are rising fuel costs making your long-haul shipments unprofitable?
How Intermodal Shipping Works
A seamless multimodal journey from Fontana to the nation.
Local Drayage
We pick up the container from your facility via our specialized terminal tractors.
Rail Ramp
We transport it to the nearby Fontana rail terminal for immediate loading.
Long-Haul by Rail
The container travels efficiently across the country via the class I rail network.
Final Delivery
A destination truck delivers the container to its final address door-to-door.
The Key Benefits of Going Intermodal
Significant Cost Savings
Rail is far more fuel-efficient for long distances, delivering up to 30% savings over OTR trucking.
Sustainability
Reduce your carbon footprint. Trains move one ton of freight over 400 miles on a single gallon of fuel.
Predictable Schedules
Rail networks operate on fixed schedules, ensuring your logistics flow remains consistent and reliable.
Enhanced Security
Containers remain sealed from origin to destination, minimizing handling risk and theft exposure.
Is Intermodal Right for Your Freight?
Optimizing your transportation budget starts with identifying the right freight for multimodal logistics.
- Shipments traveling over 750 miles.
- Freight that is not extremely time-sensitive.
- Companies looking to reduce environmental impact.
- Dense, heavy freight that fits standard containers.
