Schneider Launches Canadian Intermodal Service
Schneider National has launched a new intermodal Canadian border-crossing service for North American shippers.
The new service, called Canada Direct, aims to reduce shippers’ costs and hassles for cross-border rail moves by leveraging Schneider’s intermodal expertise and railroad relationships, the company said.
“Canada Direct was intended to be a premium door-to-door service offering that would make doing business across the U.S.–Canada border — the largest international trade lane — much more seamless for shippers, and that is exactly what we are delivering,” Steve Van Kirk, senior vice president of intermodal commercial management for Schneider National, said in a statement.
Schneider National, which offers truckload, logistics and intermodal services, is ranked No. 6 on the Transport Topics Top 100 listing of U.S. and Canadian for-hire carriers.
