Intermodal Loads for Owner Operators in Atlanta
Owner operators and other types of motor carriers who are able to haul 53’ containers can find local intermodal loads via the DrayNow app. For anyone unfamiliar with intermodal trucking, it’s a type of trucking where the truck driver will start by heading to a rail yard to pick up an intermodal drayage container to later get loaded or unloaded at a shipper.
Intermodal freight in the Atlanta area will be coming out of the Norfolk Southern Austell ramp, the NS Inman ramp, CSX Fairburn, and BNSF Infinity over in Palmetto, GA. In order to haul loads out of these rail yards, owner operators will need to register with each rail company prior to running their first load.
Intermodal loads are primarily of a short distance, staying within a 250-mile radius with many loads being less than 100 miles round-trip. Given the Atlanta location, freight may be heading out of the state, including Alabama, South Carolina, and Florida. Because freight can be traveling out of state, carriers using the DrayNow app would need interstate operating authority in order to sign up.
Owner operators who are interested in the DrayNow mobile app to access intermodal loads in their area can start signing up at the link below.
