Ocean FCL

  • Port pickup
  • Container drayage
  • Chassis coordination
  • Pre-pull when required
  • Container return coordination

Ocean LCL

  • CFS pickup
  • Local trucking
  • Warehouse transfer

Air Cargo

  • Airport pickup
  • Airline cargo terminal pickup
  • CFS pickup
  • Local trucking

Drayage applies to ocean container moves. Airport pickup is local trucking from the airline terminal or CFS, not container drayage.

03 — WAREHOUSING

Warehousing When Needed

Some shipments can move directly from pickup to final delivery. When direct delivery is not practical, Flexclearing can coordinate warehousing before the next transportation leg.

Not every shipment needs warehousing.

Our warehouse network includes air cargo facilities at LAX, JFK and ORD, plus ocean freight warehouse resources in Los Angeles, New York, Houston and Miami. Availability depends on the shipment.

04 — LTL / FTL

LTL & FTL Transportation

After pickup, and warehousing when it is required, Flexclearing can coordinate inland transportation in the United States.

Less Than Truckload

LTL

LTL transportation provides a flexible option for smaller freight shipments that do not require a dedicated truck.

  • Palletized freight

  • Commercial delivery
  • Nationwide LTL transportation

Full Truckload

FTL

FTL transportation is available for larger shipments or cargo that requires a dedicated truck.

  • Commercial delivery
  • Nationwide FTL transportation

05 — FINAL DELIVERY

Final Delivery

After customs clearance, pickup, and any required warehouse transfer, Flexclearing can coordinate transportation to the shipment's final U.S. destination.

Customs clearance gets the cargo released. We help move it the rest of the way.
