Customs-Bonded
In-bond container moves and bonded freight handling off the Ports of Seattle and Tacoma, managed by a team that knows the terminals and the paperwork.
Some freight has to move in-bond — under U.S. Customs control between the port of entry and a bonded facility or another port — before duties are paid. Ad Hoc Logistics handles bonded container drayage and in-bond moves off the Port of Seattle and Port of Tacoma, coordinating the move with your customs broker so the paperwork and the truck stay in step.
