Cargo Container Transport

ISO container transport and intermodal logistics from port to plant — chassis, block & brace, and customs-ready delivery handled seamlessly.

ISO shipping containers being transported on flatbed trailers

Container transport connects the global supply chain to your front door. Whether you're moving ISO containers from a seaport, rail ramp, or intermodal facility to a distribution center, manufacturing plant, or project site, STX provides reliable container drayage and transport services backed by our experienced dispatch team and modern equipment.

Intermodal Expertise: STX understands the intermodal supply chain — port operations, terminal procedures, chassis availability, customs requirements, and last-mile delivery challenges. We manage the complexity so you don't have to.

Out-of-Gauge Container Moves

When cargo inside a container exceeds standard height, width, or length — or is too heavy for standard container handling — it typically ships on a flat-rack or open-top container. STX has experience moving these specialized containers, which often require flatbed or step-deck trailers, special lashing, and oversize permits depending on cargo dimensions.

Block, Brace & Cargo Security

For containers with loose or heavy cargo, proper blocking and bracing is critical to prevent load shift during transport. Our team uses engineered dunnage systems, blocking lumber, and void fillers to ensure cargo arrives in the same condition it left in. We follow AAR (Association of American Railroads) blocking and bracing standards as a baseline for all container cargo security work.
