Cross-Border FAQs

Cross-border shipping is when freight travels across an international border while being transported from shipper to receiver. In North America, this means freight going between Canada, the United States and Mexico.

We answer all your questions about this type of transportation method in our blog, What is Cross-Border Shipping, including transportation modes used and keys for simplifying the process.

Trailer Bridge offers cross-border shipping solutions via over-the-road truckload as well as rail shipping. Some shippers may opt for an intermodal solution which includes a combination of truck and rail transport.

For shippers who opt to move their freight via truck, Trailer Bridge offers two options: through-trailer or transload service. The main difference in these options is whether the freight remains on the same trailer or gets moved to a new trailer during border crossing.

Compare the two options in our blog, Transloading vs. Through-Trailer Shipping, to determine which is best for your freight.

There is a variety of commodities that move between the U.S. and Mexico including automotive parts, electronics, food, home goods, machinery and medical instruments. 

The Trailer Bridge team can provide Customs clearance assistance for shippers looking to move freight to/from Mexico, the United States and Canada. Our team of experts will walk you through the process of understanding what documentation is needed and how to properly submit.
