At ROAR Logistics, we understand how important it is to get your goods where they need to go, on time and at the best price. We also understand that with so many transportation options available, it can be tough to know which one is best for your business. That’s where we come in. Our team of seasoned transportation professionals offers reliable and cost-effective intermodal transportation solutions to streamline your transportation process and meet your distinct needs, so you can focus on what you do best.
What Is Intermodal Transportation?
Intermodal transportation is a mode of transportation that combines the transit efficiencies of “Over The Road” trucking with the cost efficiencies of rail shipping to move your goods from origin to destination in a “Truck/Rail/Truck” manner. How do we do this? We pick up your freight with a truck, transfer the trailer to the railroad to move to destination, then transfer the trailer back to the road for delivery. It’s all about making your logistics process smarter and more flexible, giving you more options to get the job done.
The Benefits of Intermodal
One of the biggest advantages of utilizing intermodal transportation is saving money (and who doesn’t like that?). By utilizing both truck and rail transportation, we can help reduce transportation costs for our clients.
Intermodal also gives you the flexibility to move your goods using the best option based on the route, timing, and the type of goods being shipped. Whether you need faster delivery or want to optimize for cost-efficiency, there’s always a smarter way to get your products where they need to go.
Sustainability is another key benefit. These days, businesses need to be mindful of their environmental impact. Intermodal is a greener option because using trains or ships instead of trucks cuts down on fuel consumption and carbon emissions. Intermodal has the smallest carbon footprint of all modes of transportation by far. Plus, weather, traffic, and road conditions can delay deliveries, but with intermodal, we’re able to avoid a lot of those roadblocks.
