DK Express tractor hauling a container along a road next to a trailer yard

Services

Port drayage and power only, from Southern California.

Two focused services for shippers, brokers, freight forwarders, and warehouses moving freight out of the LA basin.

Which service fits?

Container, trailer or loose freight?

A whole ocean container to or from the ports is drayage. Your own trailer that needs a tractor and driver to Las Vegas is power only. Released loose or palletized freight from a CFS, an airport or a local business is our CFS, airport and local LTL service.

How it works

From request to rolling.

Need something other than drayage or power only? Ask. We will tell you directly whether it is something we handle.
  1. Send shipment details

    Origin, destination, timing, and what is moving: container details for drayage, trailer details for power only.

  2. Confirm rate & availability

    We review the move and come back with a rate and the availability we can commit to for that shipment.

  3. Coordinate transportation

    Once confirmed, we coordinate pickup, delivery, and paperwork with you and the other parties involved.
