Affton Trucking provides repositioning assistance to all customers,
through a very aggressive reloading program. By actively seeking return
loads, or providing the outbound freight ourselves, we assist in getting
units to the departure ports of choice, while also providing savings
from repair expenses, ingate and outgate costs and unneccessary lift costs,
and eliminating dwell time completely. We also provide an active
street-turning program for our customers, allowing imports and exports
to be matched for the most efficient use of equipment.
200 Pieces Daily. We
handle in excess of 200 shipments per day that can be reloaded
or street-turned. With this volume customers may rest assured
their outbound freight will be covered promptly.
All Sizes.
We have daily access to any
size intermodal equipment, up to 53’.
200 Mile Radius. Most equipment
available for reloading is available with 200 miles of St. Louis.
Outlying Areas.
Due to the volume
of containerized freight we move throughout the Midwest we may be found
in areas once considered too remote to offer reloading options. Contact
us with your requirements and let us find the equipment you need.
Pricing Options.
We offer the most cost effective options available in reload
pricing. We can provide rates that are guaranteed for every
load, or offer pricing options that include financial rewards
for allowing us options. Either way, the choice always belongs
to the customer.
'Round the Clock. Reloading does
not need to be limited to single-shift operations. We have maintained
great success with 24 hour operations in meeting their appointment
needs. Contact us for time-sensitive options.
Various Equipment Grades.
Need food grade, extra clean, or general purpose? If the answer is yes
then you need Affton. Our fleet is trained to grade the equipment by
understanding exactly what you need. This is communicated and the
equipment is graded long before arriving for loading.
Custom Logistics Matching.
We can match the line you select with the schedule you want.
Contact us for more information.
The entire process is designed to help get maximum production from
the equipment our customers already own and to reduce the ultimate cost
per unit for our customers. Reloading is part of our full-circle service
commitment.
