Port and airport recovery
Pulling your freight off the terminal at PortMiami or out of the cargo building at Miami International and bringing it to our dock in Medley. Same day when the release is clean and the appointment holds.
Trucking & ground transportation · South Florida · Bonded
Our own trucks. Our own bonded drivers. Past that, we name the carrier.
Most forwarders let you assume the fleet in the photo is theirs. Ours is. Box trucks and bonded drivers across Miami‑Dade, Broward and Palm Beach, feeding our own fifty thousand square foot bonded warehouse. Past that line we place the load with carriers we have vetted, anywhere in the United States, Canada or Mexico, and put the carrier’s name in front of you before it moves.

What goes on a truck
Five jobs on the ground. Four of them are ours.
Ground transport is not one service. Which of these your shipment is decides who drives it, what it costs and how early we need the paperwork.
Collection from your shipper
Scheduled pickups anywhere in Miami‑Dade, Broward and Palm Beach, straight into consolidation for the next sailing or the next flight. If your cargo has to make a cutoff, tell us the cutoff, not the pickup date.
Final delivery on U.S. imports
Once entry is filed and the cargo is released, our trucks run it to the consignee. Residential, job site and inside deliveries need to be flagged at booking. They change the equipment and the crew.
Movement under our customs bond
Bonded trucks and bonded drivers moving in‑transit cargo between the port, the airport and our bonded CFS before entry is filed. This is a licensed movement, not a normal delivery, and it has its own paperwork.
FTL and LTL beyond South Florida
Full and partial loads anywhere in the United States, Canada or Mexico, arranged with carriers we have used and checked. We manage the booking, the paperwork and the claim, and we name the carrier before you approve it.
And the freight that will not fit a door
Oversize and out‑of‑gauge cargo comes in over our double‑wide ramp or straight onto the floor at ground level, so a flatbed of machinery does not have to be broken down in a parking lot. See project cargo and distribution.
Where our equipment actually goes
The honest version of “nationwide coverage.”
Everybody in this industry says nationwide. Almost nobody owns nationwide. Here is the line between the trucks with our name on them and the network that takes it from there.
Inside the line, it is our equipment.
Our box trucks, our drivers, our insurance, our dock at the other end. Nothing is handed to a broker and nothing gets re‑tendered while you are waiting for a status.
- Palm Beach County, Jupiter down to Boca Raton
- Broward County, Deerfield Beach down to Hallandale Beach
- Miami‑Dade County, all of it, down to Florida City
- PortMiami, Port Everglades and Miami International for container, LCL and airline cargo recovery
- In‑bond moves on bonded trucks with bonded drivers
Same‑day recovery from a terminal depends on the terminal’s appointment, not on us wanting it. Tell us the cutoff you are trying to make and we will tell you honestly whether the day works.
Past it, we place it, and we say so.
Pickups and deliveries anywhere in the United States, Canada and Mexico, on carriers we have vetted and used. We are not going to dress that up as our own fleet, because when something goes wrong you deserve to know who is holding your freight.
- The whole continent: the United States, Canada and Mexico, in both directions
- You get the carrier name before the load is tendered, not after
- One point of contact: booking, documents, tracing and claims still come through us
- Equipment we do not own: flatbed, step deck, reefer and container chassis are placed, not owned
- Cross‑border paperwork handled under the same file as your export or import
If a shipment genuinely needs a single asset‑based carrier from door to door across the country, we will tell you that too, even when it means the load does not move with us.
In‑bond movement
Cargo that has landed but has not entered the country yet.
When freight arrives in the United States and entry has not been filed, it cannot simply be trucked away. It moves in‑bond, under a customs bond, on a carrier authorized to carry it. We hold that authority, which is why in‑bond cargo can come straight from the terminal to our own bonded floor instead of sitting at somebody else’s yard first.

EVERYTHING INSIDE THE AMBER BOXES IS A LICENSED MOVEMENT. ORDINARY CARRIERS CANNOT DO IT.
Why it saves days
The cargo goes from the terminal to the floor it will actually be worked on. No intermediate bonded yard, no second move, no extra day of storage at the port.
Why it saves arguments
The truck, the warehouse and the bond are the same company. If a seal or a count is questioned, there is one party to answer for it.
What we need early
The in‑bond number, the arrival details and the release. Because customs is managed in‑house, a missing document gets chased by the same company that has your freight. But give us the paperwork late and the delay is administrative, not physical, which is the frustrating kind.
Why the truck matters
The dock at the other end is ours too.
A trucking company drops your freight and leaves. That is where most of the damage, most of the short‑shipping and most of the missed cutoffs actually happen, in the gap between the carrier who delivered and the company who was supposed to receive.
There is no gap here. The driver pulls into the same building as the people who will consolidate it, load it and file for it. Customs clearance is managed in‑house too, and the entry itself is filed by the licensed customs broker we work with. The receiving check happens in front of the person who owns the outcome, and if something is wrong we find out at 10 in the morning instead of at the cutoff.
That is the whole argument for using one company on both ends. It is not about convenience. It is about who is standing there when the pallet comes off the truck.
Before you book
The 3:00 PM surprises.
Every one of them is easy to handle if it comes up at booking.
Refrigerated
We cannot receive reefer cargo at the warehouse
There is no refrigerated space on our floor. For temperature‑controlled exports we position an operating reefer at your supplier, they load it there, and we handle the rest of the export from that point.
Hazmat
Dangerous goods need the paperwork before the truck
Our staff are DG certified and we move hazmat regularly, but the safety data sheet and the declaration come first. Hazmat and bonded cargo also close a full business day earlier than general cargo.
Updates
You hear from a person, not a portal
Our team sends updates as your shipment moves, and you can call or email for a current status any time. Whoever picks up can see the whole file: the booking, the documents and the cargo, not just one scan event.
Long haul
Our own trucks stay in South Florida
We do not run our equipment to Atlanta or Texas and we will not pretend otherwise. Those loads are placed with carriers we vet, and you get the carrier name up front.
Appointments
Only the big loads need scheduling
Oversize cargo on flatbeds and full trailer loads are booked in, so the ramp and the crew are ready when the driver arrives. Regular deliveries are first come, first served. No appointment needed.
Holidays
We close on nine federal holidays
We're open on Columbus Day and Veterans Day. When a cutoff lands on a day we're closed, it moves to 12:00 PM the business day before. Plan the pickup around the cutoff, not the calendar.
Questions
How the trucking side works.
If your question is about a specific pickup, a terminal appointment or an in‑bond number, call operations. That is faster than any page.
Do you actually own your trucks, or do you broker everything?
We own and operate a fleet of box trucks and employ the drivers. That fleet covers Miami‑Dade, Broward and Palm Beach. Loads outside those three counties go to vetted carriers under our management, and so do loads that need equipment we do not own: flatbed, step deck, reefer or container chassis. We tell you which is which before the load moves.
Can you pick up from PortMiami or Miami International the same day?
Often, but it depends on two things we do not control: whether the cargo has actually been released, and whether an appointment is available. Send the release and the arrival details early and same day is realistic. Send them at 2:00 PM and it is tomorrow. We will not book a same-day slot we know we will miss.
What is an in‑bond move, and do I need one?
If your cargo has arrived in the U.S. but entry has not been filed, it has not legally entered the country and can only be moved by a carrier authorized to carry bonded freight. That is an in‑bond move. We are a bonded carrier with a bonded CFS, so we can do the move and the handling. If you are not sure whether your shipment needs one, send us the arrival details and we will tell you.
Do you handle FTL and LTL, or only local work?
Both. Work inside our own service area runs on our equipment. Full truckload and less‑than‑truckload past it, anywhere in the United States, Canada or Mexico, is arranged through carriers we have vetted, with us managing the booking, the documentation, the tracing and any claim. One file, one invoice, one company to call.
Can you deliver a full container to my door?
Container moves on a chassis are arranged with drayage partners rather than run on our own box trucks. Before you commit to a door delivery, check that the site can actually take a container: turning radius, overhead clearance and whether there is a dock or a forklift at the other end. We ask those questions at booking for a reason.
How do I get a rate?
Send the pickup and delivery addresses, the piece count, dimensions and weight, whether either end has a dock, and the date it has to be there. That is enough for a real number. Quotes come back within 4 business hours, Monday–Friday, 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM ET.
Book a truck
Tell us the cutoff, not the pickup date.
Give us the deadline your cargo is actually working against and we will plan the ground move backwards from it. That is the difference between a pickup that happens and a pickup that helps.
