Intermodal

Through our relationships with major intermodal asset providers, steamship lines and all of the Class 1 railroads, Eleets delivers an intermodal solution with unmatched flexibility, reliability and cost-efficiency. Our comprehensive intermodal offering includes Full Container, LTC, Hazmat and Expedited services, and provides access to 20’, 40’ and 45’ international containers as well as 53’ domestic container and trailer service throughout North America.

In addition to providing access to the widest possible range of intermodal equipment through a broad array of partnerships, Eleets also owns and operates a growing fleet of company-owned 53’ intermodal containers. Another example of the versatility created by our “asset-light” approach to supply-chain innovation, this exclusive pool of equipment means superior access to critical capacity when you need it most.

The Eleets Intermodal Advantage

Cost Savings: Intermodal transportation offers a significant savings versus traditional truckload in an increasing variety of domestic markets.

Load Security: Eleets works directly with railroad safety personnel and load design specialists to make sure each shipment is properly secured for rail transport, and can build  a load plan tailored to meet the needs of your cargo.

Improved Transits:  Continuous reinvestment, innovation and service enhancements by the Class 1 railroads have resulted in excellent on-time performance and transit schedules that are now comparable to truckload in many regional lanes.

Superior Visibility: Up-to-the-minute Track and Trace capabilities and EDI integration provide uninterrupted oversight on 100% of all intermodal shipments.

Supply Chain Innovation: Longer transits on some lanes can cut warehousing costs by reducing shelf inventory. With secure container yards and intermodal terminals through North America, managing an on-site equipment pool is simplified so that containers can be loaded and unloaded at your convenience.

Cross-Border Capacity: Intermodal options available into both Canada and Mexico allow streamlined border crossing on the rail through electronic customs clearance.
