How We Support Your Incoterms

Precision logistics for every stage of the international supply chain.

Origin Trucking for Exporters

We provide reliable origin trucking to pick up cargo directly from your factory or Sacramento-area warehouse. We ensure delivery to the designated port or terminal, fulfilling your 'Free on Board' responsibility with documented precision and strict adherence to vessel cut-offs.

Destination Delivery for Importers

181 Transportation LLC manages the final leg, providing expert port-to-door delivery for 'Delivered at Place' (DAP) or DDP shipments. We coordinate the container pickup from the port terminal once cleared and ensure timely distribution to your US facility or end-customer.

Coordinated 3PL Logic

We act as a collaborative partner to your freight forwarder and customs broker. By managing the domestic inland link, we ensure all documentation, transshipment logs, and timing are perfectly synchronized for a smooth transition between international ocean/air and domestic road transit.
