Why Los Angeles Ships With IZ

Los Angeles Knowledge That Cannot Be Faked

Founded by a freight veteran who spent his career mastering Los Angeles’ regulations, routes, and logistical flow. We know which yards load after 3 PM and which bridges kill an over-height route.

75,000+ Vetted Carriers

Powered by Armstrong Transport Group, so the right open deck trailer is always within reach, in Los Angeles and all 48 states.

California-Legal, Every Load

Kingpin limits, weight laws, and Caltrans permits handled up front so your freight never gets turned around at a scale.

Port to door: drayage up the 710 and 110, transload in Commerce, then out on the 10 and the 5.

Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach

How Does Port to Door Transload Work in Los Angeles?

A dray truck pulls the container from the terminal, a transload yard moves the freight onto a flatbed or van, and that truck delivers it to your door.

Most import freight heads north on the 710 or the 110 to yards around Commerce, Vernon and the Los Angeles basin. Oversize cargo that will not fit a container, like machinery on flat racks, goes straight to an open deck trailer.

  • Containers, flat racks and out of gauge cargo
  • Transload to flatbed, step deck, Conestoga or van
  • One coordinator from the terminal to delivery
