From full-container load (FCL trucking) to less-than-container load (LCL shipments), your shipments can be picked up and delivered expediently to any destination in the continental United States or taken to our distribution facilities for cross docking, container stripping, or load refurbishment.

We offer FTL (Full Truckload) and LTL (Less Than Truckload) shipping to tailor to your transportation needs.

Uncommon Carrier offers two New Jersey warehousing and distribution centers for your warehousing needs, inventory tracking, and long/short-term storage needs. Choose from our conveniently located Kearny or Flanders warehouse facilities, strategically located for local distribution and commercial warehouse services in the New York metro area or for long-haul national destinations.

Uncommon Carrier offers contract logistics in addition to standard New Jersey warehousing. Our Flanders warehouse facility provides dedicated space and personnel for accounts with long-term contracts.

Our warehouses, which encompass over 250,000 square feet of total space, are equipped with central station fire and burglar alarms and patrolled by a 24/7 security team.

If your project is outside Uncommon Carrier’s scope, check out our sister company, Uncommon Logistics, for long haul truck brokerage and shipping.

Among the greatest challenges today is sourcing capacity that fluctuates with demand in the marketplace. As a truck brokerage, Uncommon Logistics relies on experience and the latest process and interface technology to manage and move every shipment, including multiple modes, long-haul, regional, and inter-regional.

Our logistics experts track a wide range of market conditions to estimate costs and provide the most competitive price and service.
