FCL Services
We support clients, on the national and local levels, with FCL trucking services. Standing for full container load, this type of intermodal transfer means we can deliver full sized containers, around the region. For both 20- and 40-foot containers, you can count on us to be able to get them to where you need them to be. Equally, if you are moving specialist containers, of 45-, 48- and 53-foot, we will be able to support your needs. We are fully insured and licensed, to be able to handle these types of loads and so, are going to be a trustworthy partner to any serious importers or exporters.

Local Drayage
For many of our clients, the final stop is only a short distance away. That could be within the state of Washington, or even in the city of Seattle itself. Whatever the case, you want to be making sure that you are working with a team who know their local area and will be able to manage transport, responsibly. That is what you get, when you work with us. For many years, we have been serving the region with our services and know the local streets, like the backs of our hands. If you need a punctual, efficient and dedicated team to help with your local drayage, we are that team.

Regional Delivery
Alternately, you may need to see your shipments being taken further. Why would you want to limit your interests to just the one city? We completely understand that and so, are more than glad to open our services to the surrounding states of Oregon, Montana and Idaho, as well as the entirety of Washington. Our fleet of trucks are well geared to handle long distances securely and consistently. Time and time again, we have made good on our customers’ trust, never once having faced any serious issues.

Favorable Pricing Plans
We recommend our clients to opt for the FCL option, for their own economic benefit. Compared to an LCL plan, you will be able to save yourself significant amounts of capital. That is because, all FCL plans are given a flat rate, for both shipping and the transit, on land. We too will be able to reciprocate this and can offer you some of the most favorable pricing plans in the region, for both local drayage and regional transit.

Heavy Lift Classification
There are countless things which could be included within the classification of a heavy lift. But instead of it being based off of the type of load, it is specified with a list of criteria. It must be an indivisible load, weighing at least over one ton. However, this weight could extend right the way up to exceeding 1000 tons. And, typically, any heavy lift cargo is going to exceed 100 meters, in either width and height, or both. As one of the heavy lift shipping companies in Seattle we know the heavy lift cargo handling procedure. Having a heavy lift vessel is not something that all trucking companies in Washington have.

Local and Regional Transport
We know, that your heavy cargo is going to need to be transported securely, once it reaches its destination port. From both Seattle and Tacoma, you may need to send your shipment over a local or regional distance. But that will need the proper vehicles to do, if you are going to guarantee its safe arrival. To manage this, we have a number of vehicles in our fleet, which are able to safely and legally carry large loads. Each is equipped with a state-of-the-art flatbed, designed to handle a number of tons worth of goods, securely.

Safe Loading and Unloading
Whenever you are needing a heavy load of cargo being transported, the likelihood is, that you have made a serious investment into it. The worst thing that could happen, would be for any damage or harm to come to any of them. That is why, you can’t make any exceptions for the loading team, that you partner. For the same reason, that is why we are so trusted by our global clients. We have all of the capabilities to handle the safe and controlled loading and unloading of goods, along every step of the way.

Making Special Arrangements
In certain cases, there may need to be special measures taken for the overland transit. Perhaps, you need to organize an escort, to ensure the safe movement of goods. Or, you may want it to be loaded and unloaded by the same group, to ensure the proper handling from start to finish. Whatever you think you are going to need to make arrangements for, please let us know. Wherever possible, we will call upon our trusted partners and associates, to guarantee the very best service for your needs.
