Container drayage from PortMiami, gate to dock, same day.
PortMiami moves faster than the trucking market around it. Chassis shortages, gate congestion, and last-free-day penalties are the norm for most carriers — we built our drayage operation specifically to beat all three, with owned chassis and drivers who work this terminal every single day.
What makes PortMiami different — and how we handle it.
PortMiami's appointment system and chassis pool rarely align with a shipper's actual deadline. Missed appointment windows push a pull to the next day's queue, and every extra day a container sits is a demurrage or per diem charge. Our dispatch team holds a standing chassis inventory at the port, books gate appointments in advance, and tracks vessel discharge in real time so your container gets pulled inside the free-time window, not after it.
We run our own owned chassis fleet instead of relying on the shared pool, so a chassis shortage at PortMiami doesn't become your delay.
Our dispatch team books and confirms gate appointments in advance and tracks vessel discharge live, so your container is ready to pull the moment it clears — not a day later.
We track free-time deadlines against real container availability and prioritize pulls approaching their last free day, so you avoid avoidable port and line charges.
We own and deploy gensets for every reefer pull, monitor fuel levels and temperature setpoints during transit, and coordinate plug-out timing with the terminal so your cold chain stays intact from vessel discharge to warehouse plug-in.
We verify customs release status and bonded transfer documentation before dispatching the pull, so the receiving facility accepts your container on the first attempt — no return trips to the terminal.
We coordinate Florida overweight permits, route planning, and escort arrangements through FDOT, so your heavy container clears the gate and reaches its destination without legal exposure or fines.

Questions PortMiami shippers and receivers ask us.
Yes, when the container has cleared customs and a gate appointment is available. Our dispatch team prioritizes same-day pulls to avoid demurrage and per diem charges.
We run an owned chassis fleet specifically to avoid the shared pool's availability problems at PortMiami, which is one of the most common causes of drayage delay.
Yes. We coordinate bonded CFS delivery and warehouse drop as a single dispatch, so there's no handoff delay between the port pull and the final delivery.
Tell us the container number and cutoff date and we'll prioritize that pull. We track free-time deadlines actively rather than working strictly first-in-first-out.
We pull from all PortMiami container terminals, including the South Florida Container Terminal (SFCT), Port of Miami Terminal Operating Company (POMTOC), and the Port of Miami Cargo Terminal. Our drivers hold active TWIC credentials and are familiar with each terminal's gate hours, appointment system, and turnaround procedures.
We own gensets (generator sets) for reefer drayage and monitor fuel levels and temperature settings during the pull. If your container requires continuous cold chain from vessel discharge to warehouse delivery, we coordinate the reefer plug-out time with the terminal and deliver to a cold-storage or bonded warehouse without breaking the temperature chain.
Yes. We can pre-pull your container to our secure yard near PortMiami and hold it until the receiving facility confirms a dock appointment. This avoids demurrage charges while giving you flexibility on the delivery leg. A pre-pull fee applies but is typically far less than port demurrage.
Yes. Florida allows overweight permits for containers exceeding the 80,000 lb gross weight limit. We coordinate the permit, route planning, and escort requirements (if needed) through the Florida Department of Transportation, so your overweight container clears PortMiami gates and reaches its destination legally.
A standard PortMiami drayage cycle — gate in, hook container, gate out, deliver within a 15-mile radius — takes 2 to 4 hours depending on gate congestion, terminal queue depth, and traffic on the Port Boulevard corridor. We track real-time gate wait times and dispatch accordingly to minimize turn time.
Yes. We provide in-house customs brokerage coordination including ISF (Importer Security Filing) submission, customs release monitoring, and bonded transfer paperwork. This means your drayage pull, customs clearance, and warehouse delivery are all handled by one team — no third-party handoffs.
