Box Truck Delivery
Liftgate, inside and local delivery for palletized freight that doesn't need a full 53-foot trailer — quick, flexible and built for tight-access stops.
Not every load needs a tractor-trailer. Our box and straight trucks handle smaller, local and final-mile deliveries that a 53-footer can't reach — downtown docks, retail back doors, job sites and residential addresses. They're the right fit for transloaded freight, palletized LTL, and any move where access, speed or a liftgate matters more than trailer space.
What box trucks are for
Same-day and scheduled delivery across Seattle, Tacoma, Kent and the wider Puget Sound.
Liftgate-equipped trucks for destinations without a dock or forklift.
Freight placed inside the door, not just dropped at the curb.
A few pallets at a time, moved without paying for a full trailer.
Urban, retail and residential locations a 53-foot trailer can't get into.
Paired with our transloading — container to pallets to box truck, same day.
A lot of port freight gets stranded on the last leg because it was sized for a full trailer it never needed. We match the equipment to the move: drayage on a chassis, regional hauls on a 53-footer, and the local or final-mile leg on a box truck with a liftgate. Because it's all one fleet and one dispatch team, you don't juggle vendors to get a few pallets from the Port of Seattle or Tacoma to a storefront across town. As an asset-based box truck company running our own equipment, we handle box truck freight and straight truck delivery on our own schedule — no broker, no second handoff.
Most freight that needs a box truck is not a full truckload and not a parcel. It is somewhere between one and eight pallets, going to an address that a 53-foot trailer cannot reach or a receiver who cannot unload one. That is the gap, and it is a wide one: LTL carriers will take it but route it through a terminal and hand you a two-to-five-day window, while a full truckload is money you do not need to spend.
A straight truck goes direct. One driver, your freight only, delivered on a day you choose rather than a window you are given. For one to eight pallets across the Puget Sound that is usually both faster and cheaper than the alternatives, and it is the whole reason we run them alongside the tractors.
Dock to dock. The receiver has a loading dock at truck height and a forklift. Simplest and cheapest case: back in, unload, done.
Liftgate. No dock. The truck carries a hydraulic platform that lowers the pallet to ground level. This is the default for retail storefronts, small shops, job sites, schools, offices and residential addresses — and it needs saying at booking, because a truck that arrives without one cannot deliver and the trip is wasted.
Inside delivery. Past the threshold rather than left at the kerb — through the door, into the lobby, into the unit. Worth specifying up front; it changes how long the driver is there.
Residential freight delivery. Pallets to a house is its own problem: no dock, often a narrow street, sometimes a scheduled appointment because somebody has to be home. Liftgate plus a call ahead handles nearly all of it.
Across the Puget Sound from our Kent hub: Seattle and Tacoma daily, plus Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Renton, Auburn, Federal Way, Everett, Olympia and the towns between them. If the freight comes off a container first, we do that leg too — see container drayage and OTR and final-mile.
From a single pallet up to a partial truckload — anything that doesn't justify a full 53-foot trailer or needs tighter access.
Yes — liftgate and inside-delivery options for destinations without a dock or forklift.
Across the Puget Sound — Seattle, Tacoma, Kent, Auburn, Federal Way, Renton, Tukwila and the surrounding area.
That's a common move — we unload the container at Kent, palletize it, and run the pallets out on box trucks to multiple stops.
Priced by the run, not by a published per-pallet rate: how many pallets, how far, whether it needs a liftgate, and whether the driver waits. Send the pallet count, the delivery ZIP and whether there is a dock, and you get a real number the same day.
Yes, and you should tell us at booking whether you need one. A truck sent without a liftgate to an address with no dock cannot deliver, and that is a wasted trip somebody pays for.
Yes — liftgate, and normally a call ahead so someone is there. Narrow streets and no-dock addresses are routine for a straight truck and impossible for a 53-foot trailer.
For one to eight pallets moving inside the Puget Sound, usually yes — and it goes direct rather than through a terminal, so it arrives on a day instead of in a window. Over longer distances LTL wins on price again.
Yes. Say so when booking, because it changes how long the driver is on site.
