Intermodal Sales Corporation...

was founded in April of 1985. From the beginning, our major objective has been to provide the best possible service to our customers. Today, we continue that tradition by offering the very best personalized intermodal logistics programs to our customers at competitive rate and service levels, enabling us to keep ourselves and our customers "A Step Ahead" of the competition.

Intermodal Sales is a privately held corporation headquartered in Memphis, TN with regional offices throughout the Southwest, Midwest and West. See our location map.

Intermodal Sales is one of the nation's largest intermodal marketing companies. We maintain contracts with all major railroads in the United States and Canada, as well as, all domestic steamship stacktrains. This enables our clients to significantly reduce their transportation costs as a direct result of our partnerships and strong contractual standing with the railroads.

Nationwide Intermodal Service
Service between any two points within the United States, Canada or Mexico whether via TOFC, stacktrain or highway.

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
ISC operates a state of the art EDI system, enabling us to meet many levels of technology requirements. Our EDI capabilities include load billing, load status, load tender, and invoicing. Whatever your EDI needs, ISC has the system that will work for you.

Competitive Rates
All our services are offered at competitive rate levels, based on the "value-added" services provided. Rates are reflective of our strong contractual standing with all major railroads.

Full, Customized Service
ISC handles shipments from start to finish, eliminating the need to occupy customer personnel with the "details" of billing, coordinating, and tracing shipments.

Single Freight Bill
Our customer receives one freight bill for our services, with 30 days to pay. This saves the time and expense of matching several billings to a shipment, and allows additional time for payment of freight charges, as opposed to the 7 days required by other carriers.

Tracing
Through our computer link with various railroads, our tracing department traces every trailer, everyday, thus providing current equipment location when needed.

Local Drayage
ISC has arranged contracts / agreements with hundreds of drayage companies nationwide. This enables us to offer a better service package and allows the opportunity of using your preferred drayman when requested. Our excellent partnerships with draymen allow us to cover last minute or same day pickups.

Over The Road Service
In keeping with our commitment to better serve our customers, ISC has expanded our highway services division. Whether you need time sensitive J.I.T. deliveries, specialized equipment, or ship in short haul lanes, we can handle your over the road shipments. We have established a qualified and diverse base of regional and national carriers that will enable us to more efficiently handle your over the road trucking needs.

Volume Commitment
Unlike other carriers, we require no volume commitments to utilize our services. However, volume commitments can often produce lower transportation costs.

Personalized Services
Each ISC office maintains its own operations staff, allowing our customers the flexibility to design and customize their own service programs. Your ISC representative is a professional, dedicated to easing your transportation concerns and making life easier. Whether you have questions about rates, operations, or any other matter, our staff is eager to provide you with the necessary information on a moment's notice.
