Intermodal

The cost efficiency of rail with the flexibility of truck.

Intermodal shipping is one of the most cost-effective ways to move freight over long distances — and gemForwarder makes it seamless. We coordinate the full intermodal move: drayage to the ramp, rail transit, and final-mile truck delivery at destination. You get the fuel efficiency and cost savings of rail with the door-to-door convenience of trucking, all managed through a single point of contact.
