Depending on your final destination your shipment may be trucked, railed, or a combination of both. Typically shipments that have a final destination near ocean ports such as, Seattle, Oakland/San Francisco, and Los Angeles will be trucked out of the port to our delivery agent near your final destination. For shipments going to the Midwest and the East Coast, the shipment will typically be routed to a west coast port and then put on a rail car to reach a railhead nearest your final destination. Once the shipment has reached the railhead nearest the final destination, it will typically be put back on a truck, to be transported to our agent that will be handling your delivery. However, there are times when a shipment will be trucked for longer distances rather the railed. If you have any questions about your shipment, please ask your sales person or call our offices.
