The ocean voyage may end at the port, but the supply chain journey doesn’t.

For shippers, what happens after cargo arrives can be just as critical as the ocean journey itself. Port congestion, changing customer demands and rising transportation costs make efficient cargo handling and inland connectivity more important than ever.

Container Freight Stations (CFS) and transloading facilities play an essential role in keeping freight moving. From consolidating and deconsolidating shipments to transferring cargo for inland transportation, these services help improve flexibility, minimize unnecessary delays and create a more efficient path to the final destination.

At STG Logistics, our network of 20 CFS locations combines decades of experience with the flexibility of an integrated port-to-door logistics provider. Through CFS handling, transloading, drayage, warehousing and inland transportation, we help customers simplify handoffs and manage cargo movement through one connected network.

Because getting cargo off the vessel is only the beginning. Getting it where it needs to go is what matters.

From company announcements and industry insights to important service advisories, we’re keeping you connected to the latest developments at STG Logistics.
