Communication
Our proprietary dispatch software allows us to send automatic email notifications instantaneously as events occur. It also enables us to customize individual reports specified to your needs. This includes helping you provide P.O.D.s and B.O.L.s within 24 hours for your convenience.
Reducing Risks
Transportation Inc prioritizes the security of your shipments. Only authorized vehicles are allowed into our fenced and gated facility. We have 24-hour surveillance and overnight guards on-duty. All containers are checked to make sure they have the proper tamper-evident seals intact, thus virtually eliminated the risk of theft and tampering is obvious upon arrival. Our increased security gives our customers peace of mind.
Environmentally Friendly
Our tracking technology not only allows us to track all of our equipment, but smarter logistics helps us use less fuel, making our services more affordable for you and better for the environment! Intermodal shipping is more environmentally friendly than additional shipping methods that rely on long-distance trucking – even if it does require drayage capacity briefly at the beginning and end of the shipping process.
