How we help
Dispatch checks the move before we commit the truck.
Seattle/Tacoma container work gets expensive when the wrong detail shows up late. We plan around the real blockers first: terminal or ramp instructions, LFD or cutoff, chassis fit, receiver timing, Tacoma yard need, and the final empty-return plan.
If the request is still missing pieces, start with the quote readiness checker or the terminal and rail-ramp guide before sending the quote.
Before pickupTerminal or ramp, container or booking number, release timing, LFD/cutoff, appointment rules, and chassis needs are checked.
Before deliveryWeight, route fit, receiver hours, live unload or drop requirements, and delivery timing are checked.
When timing gets tightPre-pull, Tacoma yard staging, chassis recovery, and receiver-ready options are reviewed before the move turns into detention or demurrage risk.
Before final closeoutEmpty return, chassis return, and any loaded-return or export cutoff detail are confirmed so the move finishes cleanly.
