Intermodal shipping is becoming more and more common as the driver shortage in the United States continues to increase, and it’s less expensive for trucking companies. While intermodal shipping via truck is still more expensive than some other forms of transportation (i.e. train), it’s still less expensive than long haul trucking. Here are just a few good things about pursuing an intermodal freight transportation job:
The best thing about intermodal freight transportation is that regional drivers are able to get home weekly or more, and local drivers typically are home every night. Because the picking up and dropping off typically takes place in the same urban area, it’s easier for trucking companies to find drivers that are willing to do a one day job, rather than something overnight or multiple days in a row.
