Move non-urgent, consistent freight by rail and save against truckload, with drayage on the origin and destination side handled by us.

Why shippers use Freight-Tec

What you get on intermodal freight

Cost savings on long haul

Rail line-haul typically prices under truckload on lanes above 700 miles.

Door-to-door handling

Origin and destination drayage arranged so you book one movement.

Capacity in tight markets

Intermodal capacity stays available when truckload markets spike.

Transit you can plan around

We quote realistic rail transit, including ramp cutoffs.
