Eliminate Port-Side Guesswork with Professional Intermodal Drayage Dispatch

Get 24/7 visibility, real-time terminal coordination, and structured dispatch support built around port and rail operations.

Our intermodal dispatch workflows combine real-time tracking, terminal-specific operating knowledge, appointment coordination, chassis planning, driver communication, and exception management to keep container moves organized from release through empty return.

Structured Intermodal Dispatch Built Around Real Terminal Operations

Intermodal trucking involves constantly changing gate hours, FIRMS codes, appointments, chassis availability, free-time deadlines, and terminal-specific requirements.

We help drivers and fleets operate with clearer information before they arrive at the terminal. Our team monitors active moves, verifies operational requirements, coordinates appointments and equipment, and escalates exceptions when conditions change.

Whether you operate in Chicago, Houston, Detroit, or other intermodal markets, our goal is simple: clearer execution, better visibility, and fewer preventable operational surprises.

Who It’s For

• Owner-operators running local container turns
• Small and mid-size drayage fleets managing multiple drivers

‍FAQs

Do I need UIIA to do intermodal drayage?

If you interchange equipment from participating equipment providers and access certain facilities, UIIA participation is a core requirement in intermodal equipment interchange operations.

Is this only “after-hours dispatch”?

No. This is full intermodal dispatch execution. After-hours coverage is included once you onboard so your operation is protected 24/7.

What’s the difference between intermodal drayage dispatch and OTR dispatch?

Drayage dispatch is about terminal/ramp execution, appointments, equipment interchange rules, gate events, and local turn efficiency. The drayage leg itself is the truck move between shipper/receiver and rail ramp/terminal.

Can you support fleets, not just owner-operators?

Yes. Our workflows are built for single-truck operators and fleet operations - especially appointment control, exception handling, chassis flow, and documentation discipline.
