At ContainerPort Group, our people-first culture starts with our values. We value safety, collaboration and creativity. We believe in being transparent and flexible, offering transportation options to fit unique shipping or driving needs. We know that a lot of other intermodal companies do what we do —but no one does it quite like us.

CONTAINER DRAYAGE:
We have interchange agreements with every steamship line, a fleet of 1,300+ independent contractors and some of the industry’s most experienced supply chain leaders. We aim to deliver the most seamless, headache-less shipping experience possible, and we do it by delivering on our promises with excellent customer service.

Whether you’re expecting freight in Philadelphia, Houston, or anywhere in between, our locations guarantee a no-hassle transport of your overseas imports or exports. We have Specialized chassis on hand to deliver both standard and overweight containers, interchange agreements with all —yes, all —steamship lines, bonded carrier status: we hold all federally regulated permits to carry freight, tracking technology so you know exactly where your freight is and what it’s doing, more than 100 years of combined supply chain experience within our leadership team, and drayage locations throughout the North and South Atlantic, Ohio Valley, Great Lakes, Midwest and Gulf regions.

Transporting liquids takes some extra attention and certification. We have specialty chassis, insurance and permits to carry bulk liquid freight to wherever you need it most. And, we have skilled and experienced independent contractors that know ISO bulk freight better than anyone. Your shipment is in safe hands with us.

WAREHOUSING & DISTRIBUTION:
We can transport your freight, sure. But we can also consolidate, crossdock, transload, sort, package and do much more for your freight and supply chain. With us, all your transport needs can be handled and coordinated with ease. Your freight stays flowing with our crossdocking services. We’ll load incoming freight directly into outbound trucks so shipments arriving from disparate locations can all be combined and transported to a final destination. This means you can reduce your storage inventory costs, decrease the risk of damage to your inventory, thanks to limited handling, bring your freight to the market faster, and have access to real-time tracking and tracing technology to know where your freight is at every stop in the journey.

Transfer inbound ocean container shipments to domestic trucks quickly, easily and efficiently. With locations near your most-used ports and rails, our transloading services mean your freight gets to customers fast—we’re talking 24 hours fast.

Our Container Transload Facility is designed to handle overweight and out-of-gauge (OOG) cargo, and deliver on complex shipping needs. Learn more about our transloading capabilities and facility features.

LOGISTICS SOLUTIONS:
When you need extra capacity for daily operations or more insight on your market, managed drayage services provide you with the tools for bettering your business. Backed by decades of industry experience, our Intelligent Drayage Services (IDS) team will work with you to find gaps in your drayage network, optimize efficiency, find competitive bids and more.

Our domestic container drayage services can take your freight off the ship or rail and splice it whichever way you want. Don’t bother with coordinating shipping services; we can deconsolidate and deliver your shipment where you need it most. Best of all, we can create dedicated routes to deliver only what you have the capacity for, right when you need it.

Procuring carriers is an involved process, and it’s not always easy to find the perfect fit for your drayage network. Whether you’re entering a new market or need support to build your growth, our bid management services help handle the carrier bid process. Our Logistics Solutions team acts as an extension of your own procurement team and will work with you to manage and execute carrier bids every step of the way.

Don’t shoot in the dark when it comes to freight rates. Benchmarking services bring you valuable insight and knowledge on your operations, so you know how your rates stack up against other competitors. With decades of expertise and experience in the drayage industry, our team will work with you to find where you stand in today’s market. Find out where you’re meeting the mark and where you have opportunities to optimize.

Find the spots where you can reduce cost and improve efficiency—and get tailored recommendations on how to make those changes in your drayage network. Our team of industry experts will work with yours to determine where you have opportunities to optimize based on your shipping volumes, locations and more. Then, we’ll craft recommendations specific to you and your business goals, so you have a concrete plan for bettering your network.

DOMESTIC TRANSPORTATION:
Routine shipments should be tailor-made for your transport needs. That’s where our local truckload services come in. We can move freight around metro areas at your pace, on your time, and with your designated freight volume. We hire experienced owner-operators and deliver creative, efficient solutions, all while putting people first at every turn.

Sometimes it’s easiest to take routes into your own hands. Our dedicated drayage and truckload service means you have access to a truck or fleet to use when and how you want. You can supplement your own fleet with extra lift or add capacity to your current transport provider. Our communication-focused core values mean no crossed wires or missed connections —just smooth shipping.

Our domestic brokerage services secure your freight and take care of everything from handoff to arrival. We source well-qualified carriers and even pull from our own owner-operator fleet to align with your shipping needs. Plus, we’ve got coast-to-coast coverage (Alaska, Hawaii, and both Mexican and Canadian border shipping) and specialty chassis for different freight.
