What is Port Drayage?

Port Drayage specifies freight being transported from a port to a nearby location. This brief transportation is meant to keep a steady flow of goods out of ports to prevent container congestion. Most containers taken out of port will be delivered to local warehouses where items can be transloaded onto a standard dry van or stored as part of company inventory. 

Port Drayage operates as a crucial link to keep the supply chain moving in the most efficient way possible.
