DRAYAGE FAQs

Frequently asked questions

ABOUT DRAYAGE

What is drayage?

Drayage is a short-distance transportation method that moves shipping containers between ports, rail yards, and warehouses. Bridging the “first mile” and “last mile” of a shipment’s journey, drayage serves a vital role in the supply chain.

What is the difference between drayage and long-haul trucking?

While long-haul trucking (also known as “over-the-road” or OTR trucking) is used to transport freight over vast distances, drayage moves containers locally over a much shorter distance. Additionally, drayage bridges the gap between different modes of transportation and stages of the supply chain (first and last mile),

What is transloading?

Transloading is the transfer of goods between different modes of transportation (i.e. ship, rail, and truck), requiring specialized equipment and careful handling to ensure a seamless handoff of freight.
