How we run drayage in Virginia

We work Port of Virginia (Norfolk International, Virginia International Gateway, Newport News) 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 Virginia flows along I-64 and I-95 — corridors we route load planning around, not against. Drayage drops at Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Richmond go out daily, and intermodal moves through NS Norfolk are part of the same lane book.
