Container drayage for Federal Way, WA.

Federal Way sits squarely on the I-5 corridor between Seattle and Tacoma — which is exactly what makes it easy to serve no matter which harbor your container discharges at. A box off the Tacoma terminals is roughly 15 minutes south; the Seattle terminals are a straight shot north. For Federal Way businesses, that mid-point location means you're never penalized for the harbor your steamship line happened to pick. We run the dray with our own trucks and chassis and track every container's free time.

Midway between the harbors — to your advantage

The catch with a single-harbor carrier is that the other harbor carries a penalty in deadhead miles and time. From Federal Way, we treat Seattle and Tacoma as one operating area: we dispatch against every terminal in both harbors daily, so whether your container lands at T18 in Seattle or PCT in Tacoma, the dray into Federal Way is short either way. We cover the surrounding cities too — Auburn, Kent, Milton, Fife, Des Moines and Tacoma — plus regional drayage across the Northwest.

Need the container unloaded, reworked or stored? Our warehouse and transload dock in Kent are a short run away, so it all stays under one roof and one invoice.

Federal Way drayage FAQ

How far is Federal Way from the ports?

Federal Way is roughly 15 minutes from the Tacoma terminals and a short run from the Seattle terminals — its mid-point I-5 location keeps the dray short from either harbor.

Does it matter which port my container lands at?

Not for Federal Way. Because we work both harbors and Federal Way sits between them, your steamship line's choice of Seattle or Tacoma doesn't change much about the dray.

Can you store or transload before delivering to Federal Way?

Yes — we prepull, store and transload at our Kent facility nearby, so a tight terminal appointment never becomes a demurrage bill.

Which terminals do you serve for Federal Way?

All of them — Husky, WUT and PCT in Tacoma and T18, T5 and T30 in Seattle.
