Intermodal
Vertex Transport provides full-service spot market and intermodal (truck-rail-truck) transportation to freight brokers and shippers throughout the continental 48 states, Canada and Mexico. Vertex Transport also offers ocean freight services in conjunction with its intermodal offering.
Vertex offers its services through a partnership with major Class I railroads and we handle railroad-owned or private trailers and containers, including 45', 48', and 53' trailers and 48' and 53' containers.
Vertex complements this rail commitment with years of its own transportation experience. This expertise gives us the resolve to take the headaches out of mixing modes. Our customers get one rate, one-stop tracking and one bill of lading and invoice. Our service offering includes origin and destination drayage as well as the line-haul portion of the move.
