Freight & Drayage in Long Beach

~23 mi from the LA yard · 35–60 min · same-day service available

Cargo Taxi Deliveries serves Long Beach with transload, drayage support and palletized freight, including TWIC-carded access to the Port of Long Beach and the Union Pacific ICTF rail facility. Containers are devanned onto pallets and distributed across the basin or out to ten western states.

Long Beach freight is port freight, and port freight is a clock problem. Terminals run appointment systems, free time expires on a schedule that does not bend, and the gap between a container being discharged and being available is where demurrage comes from. Everything about working here is scheduling against the last free day rather than against the arrival date.

The specific advantage of transloading rather than pulling a container is clearest in Long Beach, because so much of what lands here is destined for more than one consignee. A container devanned onto pallets at a transload warehouse can be split across a multi-stop route the same day, and nobody downstream has to receive and sort a whole box that is mostly somebody else's freight.

Questions

Long Beach, answered.

Do you have TWIC-carded drivers for the Port of Long Beach?

Yes — TWIC-carded drivers are available for Long Beach and Los Angeles terminal access. Confirm the requirement with dispatch against your specific terminal and appointment when booking, so the assignment is made against the credential rather than discovered at a gate.

Can you pull a container on a chassis from the port?

No. This fleet runs box trucks and a flatbed rather than chassis-pulling tractors, so a live container pull needs a drayage operator with that equipment and dispatch will say so directly. What this fleet does is transload — devanning the container and moving the freight on pallets — which is usually cheaper when the contents split between consignees.
