PINCH DEDICATED FREIGHT SERVICES

Seamless Import


Pinch has a close relationship with the international freight forwarding industry and through these relationships we have developed the “Seamless Import Solution.”

Pinch works with the forwarders to coordinate the pick-up of incoming containers from the port or rail depot, dray them to a Pinch facility and deconsolidate the container. Pinch then reports inventory and arranges for last mile transportation. Our seamless service is a one-stop distribution service from the port to the door.
