Carload Express offers years of experience in helping put food on our customer’s tables. We can help offer logistics solutions for non rail served customers ranging from pick up by your own truck at our public delivery tracks, to full service, food grade transload and warehouse facilities offering repacking, mixing, and cold storage capabilities. With a large number of food receivers located on line, we also can arrange backhaul freight movements in westbound canned goods and refrigerated cars that would otherwise move back to western markets empty!
