1. Port & Rail Drayage Services

Container drayage is the vital short-haul link connecting ocean vessels to inland destination points. Our dedicated drayage operations focus on fast container turnaround from the Port of Los Angeles and Port of Long Beach to prevent demurrage, detention, and storage penalties. Services include bonded container transport, overweight container hauling, chassis provisioning, and cross-docking operations.

2. Full Truckload (FTL) & Less-Than-Truckload (LTL)

For shippers moving palletized commercial goods, raw materials, or retail merchandise, we offer flexible FTL and LTL options across interstate routes. By leveraging volume carrier networks, we consolidate smaller cargo lots into cost-saving LTL channels or assign dedicated dry van equipment for expedited FTL shipments.

3. Specialized Equipment & Heavy-Haul Transport

Outsized, heavy, or specialized freight requires precise structural planning and dedicated transport configurations. Our carrier fleet accommodates complex engineering logistics with specialized equipment:

  • Flatbed & Step Deck Trailers: Ideal for construction goods, steel coils, and side-loading industrial cargo.
  • Removable Gooseneck (RGN) & Lowboy Trailers: Designed for heavy wheeled machinery, excavators, and high-clearance equipment.
  • Stretch Single & Double Drop Trailers: Custom-fitted for extremely long or oversized structural components.
  • Self-Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMTs): Multi-axle heavy trailers engineered for extreme project cargo tonnage.
  • Refrigerated (Reefer) Trucks: Temperature-controlled road transport keeping perishables and pharmaceuticals within strict thermal thresholds.
