Ground

Ground transportation in both domestic and international markets continues to be an economical and effective mode of transport for cargo shipments. Our sister company, Crane Freight and Cartage supplies 250 operators. We also have a netowrk of top carriers that create a network of highly skilled and conscientious providers. The knowledgeable team at Crane Worldwide works with customers to evaluate their local, regional, national and transborder challenges. Operating around-the-clock and using a full range of ground service options, we can provide solutions to streamline businesses and to capitalize on cost-saving opportunities.

  • Expedited: For your most urgent and high-value shipments, Crane Worldwide operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year to provide immediate solutions. We have access to a complete inventory of vehicles, and we can provide nonstop ground transportation to and from any location in North America. Additionally, our expedited ground service can be combined with other service options to attain maximum efficiency and flexibility.
  • Local Pick-up and Delivery: Crane Worldwide provides same day pick-up and delivery freight services for customers within a local market. We also offer scheduled delivery services for customers with daily and repetitive shipments. Additionally, our local pick-up and delivery services are directly integrated into all service options to ensure timely and accurate delivery at the final destination.
  • Less-than-Truckload (LTL): Crane Worldwide offers LTL service that is flexible, efficient and economical for single-pallet, and multi-pallet shipments. We provide local, regional and national coverage for our customers who opt for this more economical mode of transport.
  • Pool Distribution: Crane Worldwide offers pool distribution services which typically apply to high frequency, regular shipments in LTL quantities. Pool Distribution is the distribution of shipments to multiple destination points within a specific geographic area or region. Pool distribution represents a superior and cost effective alternative to the high cost of LTL shipments. Rather than utilizing LTL services direct-to-site, product is shipped to regional terminals in truckload quantities. There it is off-loaded, segregated and sorted by destination then reloaded onto local trucks for delivery to the pool destinations. Pool distribution reduces transit times, maintains shipment integrity, and allows a significant discount over LTL rates.
  • Residential: Crane Worldwide provides residential delivery services for large scale, high-value products moving from businesses to the consumer’s home. We offer scheduled deliveries by professionals to ensure shipments are damage-free and delivered to meet your timeframe and requirements.
  • Specialized Equipment: In addition to standard trailers, Crane Worldwide has access to a variety of special equipment such as:

• Air Ride Trailers
• Flatbed Trailers
• Gooseneck Trailers
• Roller-bed Trailers
• Drop-Deck/Low-Boy Trailers
• Temperature-Controlled Trailers
• Lift-gate Vehicles
• Cube Trucks
• Sprinter Vans

  • Truckload: Crane Worldwide Logistics offers a full range of customized local, regional, national, team and dedicated truckload services, designed to keep our customers’ businesses running smoothly. While we focus on quality and efficiency, we also offer competitive rates regardless of the size or complexity of your truckload needs.
