Intermodal transportation gets a reputation it doesn't always deserve. Many shippers assume rail means slower transit, more complexity, or freight that gets handled too many times to feel comfortable. In practice, the experience is often very different.

In this episode of Beyond Point to Point, Averitt's intermodal services leader Allison Phillips joins host Joe Greek to break down how intermodal actually works, where it delivers the strongest cost and capacity advantages, and why shippers who try it are often surprised by how closely it mirrors a dedicated truckload experience.

Topics covered in this episode:

When intermodal is a strong fit and what lanes perform best
How freight moves door to door without being touched or transloaded
How intermodal connects to LTL pool distribution strategies
Cross-border options into Canada and Mexico
How tracking works for individual shipments moving by rail

Beyond Point to Point is the podcast from Averitt where we go beyond pickup and delivery and dive deeper into the world of logistics, freight, and supply chain management. Subscribe for new episodes covering the strategies and solutions shaping today's supply chains.
