Intermodal Solutions
Intermodal shipping combines truck and rail transportation to move freight efficiently across long-haul lanes. For shippers moving consistent volumes, it offers a cost-effective alternative to over-the-road trucking while maintaining reliable service and shipment visibility. LDi connects you to major rail networks with access to more than 40,000 containers, competitive pricing, and a single point of coordination from origin to destination. Our team manages container sourcing, routing, scheduling, and tracking to keep your freight moving efficiently.
If you're shipping consistent volumes over distances of 500 miles or more, intermodal could be a smart option for your business.
Why Intermodal?
Intermodal works when volume is consistent and lanes are long.
For shippers moving regular freight volumes across established rail corridors, intermodal can provide significant cost savings compared to traditional over-the-road trucking. By combining the long-haul efficiency of rail with the flexibility of trucking, businesses can manage transportation costs while maintaining dependable delivery schedules.
Intermodal is particularly effective for predictable shipments that allow some flexibility in transit time. It can also help shippers diversify their transportation options, reduce dependence on truckload capacity, and support sustainability goals through more fuel-efficient rail transportation.

Is Intermodal Right for Your Freight?
The right lanes, consistent volume, and flexible transit times make all the difference.
Intermodal is a strong option for shippers moving consistent freight volumes over long distances, particularly along established rail corridors. Shipments with predictable schedules, regular pickup and delivery locations, and some flexibility in transit time are often the best candidates.
Not every shipment is suited for rail. Distance to intermodal terminals, shipment frequency, delivery requirements, and overall transportation costs all play a role. LDi can evaluate your shipping lanes and help determine where intermodal makes sense for your operation.
