Frequently asked questions

Questions and answers about Precision Transport services

Can I ship temperature-sensitive goods via intermodal?

Yes. Temperature-controlled containers are available for intermodal shipments, allowing perishable and temperature-sensitive goods to be shipped safely across multiple transportation modes.

When is intermodal shipping the best option?

Intermodal is most cost-effective for consistent, high-volume shipments traveling long distances. If your freight is not time-critical and you’re shipping over 700 miles, intermodal can save 10-40% compared to over-the-road trucking alone.

Do I need to work with a broker for intermodal shipping?

Shippers generally cannot book directly with railroads for intermodal moves. Precision Transport serves as your intermodal service provider, handling all coordination between truck and rail carriers so you have a single point of contact.

How do I track my intermodal shipment?

Every intermodal container has standardized ISO identifiers that enable tracking across all transportation modes. Precision Transport provides shipment visibility through our customer portal so you can monitor your freight from origin to destination.

What are the benefits of intermodal shipping?

Intermodal shipping offers significant cost savings on long-haul routes (especially over 700 miles), reduced carbon emissions, less cargo handling (which means less damage risk), and access to rail networks that can move one ton of freight nearly 500 miles on a single gallon of fuel.

What is intermodal shipping?

Intermodal shipping moves cargo using multiple modes of transportation — typically truck, rail, and/or ocean — with standardized containers that transfer seamlessly between modes. This eliminates the need to unload and reload freight at each transition point.
