When it comes to the benefits of using rail transportation over truck transportation, the bottom line speaks for itself. By moving more containers, the distribution of costs is greater, resulting in a lower cost per mile and direct cost-savings that positively impact your profits. Additionally, Fastfrate has invested in 100 heated and 100 dry containers, increasing their container capacity and ensuring that your goods are ready to ship.

Rail also offers greater weight capacity, allowing you to ship more goods across the same distance with comparable transit times. Fastfrate’s long-standing partnership with CP Rail gives you access to more locations and greater access to yards, resulting in improved time efficiency. Same-day departure and priority loading and unloading mean faster transit times and less congestion, getting your goods to market faster.

Finally, rail transportation is also more sustainable four times more fuel-efficient than road transport. With all these benefits, it’s easy to see why rail transportation is the smarter choice.

With full truckload freight, you can expect faster delivery times, as the truck can depart immediately after being loaded at its pickup location and won’t need to make additional stops.
