How we run drayage in Michigan
We work Port of Detroit 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 Michigan flows along I-75 and I-94 — corridors we route load planning around, not against. Drayage drops at Detroit, Grand Rapids, Lansing go out daily, and intermodal moves through CSX Detroit are part of the same lane book.
