Seattle Port Drayage Services
D&G Transport moves containers off the Seattle terminals every working day. Loads come out of the harbor and go straight into SODO, Georgetown, Interbay and Ballard, or south down I-5 into the Kent Valley warehouses. Because the tractors, chassis and yard are ours, a Seattle pull is scheduled by our own dispatch rather than handed to a broker.

Port & rail work in Seattle
Seattle harbor pulls
Import containers are pulled from the Seattle terminal groups and delivered on the consignee's appointment. Dispatch tracks availability and last free day on each box so exposure to per-diem and demurrage is visible before it becomes a charge.
Export loading windows
For exports we work backwards from the earliest receiving date and cut-off, pick the empty, run it to the shipper for loading and return it to the terminal inside the receiving window.
Rail-connected freight
Containers routed via the BNSF and Union Pacific ramps in the region are handled on the same dispatch board as harbor work, so a box that changes mode does not change carriers.
Gate congestion planning
Seattle gate queues move through the day. Drivers are dispatched around the busy bands, including night and early-morning pulls, so hours go into moving freight rather than sitting in line.
Company equipment on every Seattle move
Seattle work runs on our own tractors and our own chassis pool, including extendable chassis for 40ft and 45ft boxes. When a container has to wait for a dock or an empty return window, it waits on our ground in Tacoma instead of accruing terminal storage.
What we know about the Seattle side
Our drivers run the Seattle terminals routinely, so appointment portals, gate procedure and empty-return direction are day-to-day knowledge rather than something learned per load. We publish terminal-level detail only where it is confirmed; if you need a specific facility checked, dispatch will confirm it on the call.
