How we run drayage in Alabama
We work Port of Mobile and the surrounding terminal complex on appointment systems daily. That means knowing which terminals run TIPS versus eModal versus Voyager, where chassis pools split, and how each ramp prioritizes return windows during congestion.
Major freight in Alabama flows along I-65 and I-10 — corridors we route load planning around, not against. Drayage drops at Birmingham, Mobile, Huntsville go out daily, and intermodal moves through BNSF Birmingham are part of the same lane book.
