🚛 What Is Transloading?

Transloading involves transferring cargo from one mode of transportation to another — most commonly from rail or ship to truck. This process is essential when the origin and destination are not directly connected by a single mode of transportation.

For example, shipping containers arriving at the Port of Los Angeles or Port of Houston may be transloaded at inland terminals for final delivery by truck. Learn more about how transloading works here.
