Sumner Drayage
The Sumner–Puyallup valley has become one of the South Sound's busiest distribution districts. We dray import and export containers off the Port of Tacoma into Sumner with our own fleet, free time tracked on every box.
Sumner and the neighboring Puyallup valley have filled with large distribution and fulfillment warehouses, drawn by the space and the quick connection to the Port of Tacoma via SR-410 and SR-167. For those operations, drayage is a daily rhythm, and the carrier's reliability decides whether the dock plan holds. We pull from the Tacoma terminals — Husky, WUT and PCT — and run the short leg into Sumner, with one team booking appointments, sending chassis and watching each container's Last Free Day.
Drayage for Sumner warehouses
Pull from the Tacoma terminals to your Sumner or Puyallup warehouse, Last Free Day tracked.
Empty pickup, load at your Sumner dock, and return to the terminal before the cut-off.
Steady daily pulls for Sumner's fulfillment centers, with drop-and-hook to keep the dock moving.

Prepull before the Last Free Day when the Sumner dock is full, and hold the container at our yard.
Tri-axle chassis for overweight Tacoma loads and refrigerated container handling into Sumner.
The warehouses around Sumner move serious volume, and a stuck container or a missed terminal slot throws off the whole day. We dispatch against every Tacoma terminal daily so we book the right appointment and pull on time, then run the short SR-410 / SR-167 leg into Sumner. From here we cover the wider valley — Puyallup, Bonney Lake, Orting, Fife, Auburn and Pacific — plus regional drayage across the Pacific Northwest.
And because our warehouse and transload dock are a short run north in Kent, a container can come off the Port of Tacoma, get stripped or stored, and ship out the same week — one team, one invoice. (See also Port of Tacoma drayage.)
Roughly 15–20 minutes via SR-410 and SR-167 — a short dray that keeps moves tight and empty returns fast.
