Expedited Transportation to Shelby Township, (MI)

Transporters use different modes of freight transport to keep the costs low and deliver the goods from the shipper to the consignee in the most efficient way. One mode of freight transport is Intermodal Freight Transport. This is when the goods are transported in an intermodal container allowing the transporters to change transportation mediums between trucks, ships, and trains without handling the freight itself.

Intermodal freight transport protects goods from damage and fastens the delivery by saving the time between container changes. Let's take a deeper look into Intermodal Freight Transport.

A truck driver must know the type of freight they are transporting and whether that freight is interstate or intrastate. It can be hard to differentiate between the two types of freight, but we're here to help!

Intrastate and interstate significantly impact the types of loads you can transport and the equipment you need. Even though it's easier to start by only hauling intrastate, you'll have fewer options for loads and, as a result, less money to spend.

Most independent owner-operators and small fleets should begin with an interstate trucking company because it gives them more options and improves their success.

Transporting small-sized packages is fairly simple and easy. All you have to do is drop the item off at your preferred courier company and wait for it to reach its destination. That simple! But it’s when you have to ship large items such as furniture and fragile goods such as television sets that it becomes a problem. Cost is higher for large goods but courier companies have limitations on the weights and sizes of items that they can deliver.
