Dependable Domestic Transportation

Domestic transportation—also called national transportation—refers to moving goods throughout a particular country within its borders, including loading and unloading the goods. This can happen on land, in the air, or by other means such as across waterways.

On land, ground-based domestic transportation can take place with trucks to move goods from one city to the next—or to the next state or from coast to coast. Rail transportation, sometimes used to transport larger and/or heavier goods, is another form of on-ground domestic transportation. These methods are typically the most cost effective but slower delivery compared to goods transported via air—which is usually the fastest form of transportation and more costly depending on origin and destination. (If items are especially bulky, air is usually not the best method to choose.)

In the United States, domestic transportation does not generally use waterways; that’s more commonly done when crossing the ocean for international transportation. Waterways can be used domestically, though, when transporting goods from the contiguous United States to Hawaii, Alaska or to U.S. territories like Puerto Rico.

There are several ways to answer this question and, in each one, the answer is dependent on partnering with an expert freight broker for your company such as NXTPoint Logistics. One advantage of an experienced freight broker who delivers quality services is the amount of knowledge they have about the industry and about how to streamline the supply chain in optimal ways. For that to occur, your freight broker must have an in-depth network of carriers and other professionals to gain a competitive edge, including with the pricing. Another way to answer this question: you can benefit by their established efficiencies when you choose the right one-stop shop. This means that you don’t have to create a piecemeal plan for your freight management and delivery.
