Drayage Services with Owned Chassis | Full Tilt Logistics

In today’s supply chain, drayage plays a critical role in keeping containerized freight moving efficiently between ports, rail yards, and warehouses. However, many shippers experience delays caused by chassis shortages, third-party dependencies, and inconsistent scheduling.

To better serve our customers and reduce these common bottlenecks, Full Tilt Logistics has invested in company-owned chassis, strengthening our drayage and intermodal transportation capabilities.

“Our team works closely with customers moving containerized freight through ports, rail ramps, and warehouses, and we’ve seen firsthand how equipment availability can make or break a drayage move,” says Cris Novich, who focuses on aligning Full Tilt’s operations with customer needs.

What Is Drayage?

Drayage refers to the short-haul transportation of containerized freight between key points in the supply chain, such as ports, rail terminals, warehouses, and distribution centers. While drayage moves may be relatively short in distance, they are often some of the most time-sensitive and operationally complex segments of a shipment.

Reliable container drayage services require coordination, equipment availability, and clear communication to avoid costly delays and disruptions.

Why Chassis Matter in Drayage Operations

A chassis is the wheeled frame that allows shipping containers to be transported by truck. Without reliable access to chassis, drayage operations can quickly stall.

Many logistics providers rely on third-party chassis pools, which can lead to:

• Limited availability during peak demand
  
• Scheduling delays
  
• Increased detention and demurrage costs
  
• Reduced visibility and operational control
  

By owning our own drayage chassis, Full Tilt Logistics removes a major variable from the drayage process and delivers more consistent service for our customers.
