Intermodal is one of the fastest growing modes of transportation in the industry today. It combines the best abilities of different transportation modes to deliver service, savings and solutions to shippers. By working together, trucking companies, intermodal marketing companies, ocean steamship lines and railroads are providing a cost-effective, seamless, reliable, efficient and safe way to move freight. Shipments can be moved from a containership directly to a truck or a railroad and then delivered to its final destination. Throughout the process, intermodal facilitators, or third-party logistics providers, arrange for each piece of the move from pick up to drop off.

With so many parties involved in the process, it is critical to have the integration and capabilities of passing documents and data between all those involved. EBE’s integration capabilities along with its unique solutions for container management has helped many companies manage these processes efficiently and profitably while reducing many of the labor intensive processes typically associated with this industry segment.
