Drayage Logistics Services

Drayage Logistics Solutions



To complete the logistics solution for each customer, Rite Trans offers drayage services. Drayage is the transporting of freight — usually in containers via truck — over short distances as part of a longer-length haul. Drayage carriers truck containers from port to port, from port to rail terminal, from warehouse or distribution center to a port or rail terminal, or simply to their final locations via truck. This service is referred to as intermodal drayage when more than one mode of transportation is utilized to get a shipment from one location to another — for example, a container is transported from a ship to rail, truck to rail, or ship to the truck during the journey to its final destination.
