Common Questions From Shippers

Do you work directly with shippers?

Yes. Edmonds Transport works directly with shippers and importers. We do not repost freight to load boards or reshuffle loads through third parties. Our relationships are built around repeat lanes and consistent capacity.

What lanes do you specialize in?

We specialize in container drayage out of the Port of Norfolk and regional dry van lanes throughout Virginia, North Carolina, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. Most of our freight moves within a 50–400 mile radius.

Do you provide dedicated capacity?

Yes, for shippers with consistent volume and predictable lanes. Dedicated capacity is evaluated during a short Freight Fit Call to ensure expectations, volume, and service requirements align on both sides.

How do you handle port delays and chassis issues?

We operate with direct port experience at NIT and account for real-world variables like chassis availability, terminal congestion, and appointment constraints. Communication happens directly with the decision-maker, not through a call center.

What makes you different from brokers?

We are an asset-based carrier. That means the truck assigned to your load is not reassigned mid-move, your freight is not reposted, and communication stays direct. We prioritize consistency and accountability over spot-rate pricing.
