How we run drayage in Minnesota
We work Port of Duluth-Superior 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 Minnesota flows along I-35 and I-94 — corridors we route load planning around, not against. Drayage drops at Minneapolis, Saint Paul, Duluth go out daily, and intermodal moves through BNSF Minneapolis are part of the same lane book.

FAQ
Do you cover all ports in Minnesota?
We cover Port of Duluth-Superior daily. If you have container freight at a smaller terminal not listed, message us — most secondary terminals in the state are reachable through our carrier network.
