Call Hanson Logistics for west coast rail service.
Moving your refrigerated products by rail is a unique transportation option that can offer significant cost savings over traditional truckload service. To provide our clients with a full range of transportation solutions, Hanson Logistics has developed a successful working relationship with rail lines serving our facilities with moves to west coast destinations. We complement the efficiencies of rail by providing inbound transportation, transloading, warehousing and invoicing, giving you a single source multi-modal solution.
For processors shipping bulk products for west coast distribution or export, rail delivers on the economy of scale. A 50 ft. refrigerated rail car holds the equivalent of 3 truckloads, often requiring less packaging, handling and materials. Rail transportation also reduces highway congestion and lessens the strain on the US interstate system. While rail moves at a lower-per-shipment fuel cost, a key consideration in today’s supply chain, this mode of transportation should be reserved for those shipments meeting specific criteria.
Our transportation management services will work closely with you to identify, rate and manage those shipments suited for rail. You can rest assure you will receive the same level of expertise in rail as you’ll find with our LTL, consolidated and truckload service, including competitive rates, visibility, web-based notification and on-time delivery. Your Hanson Logistics representative will be happy to discuss rail options at your convenience.
