Asset-Based Dry Van Freight Services
With a population near 214,133, Des Moines drives steady dry van demand across financial-services distribution, food manufacturing and ag-processing — cargo an enclosed trailer is built to carry. Every load rides in a 53-foot van with a MigWay company driver assigned from dispatch straight through to delivery, so chain of custody never changes hands.
Around the state, Iowa freight leans on agricultural processing, ethanol and biofuels, ag equipment, wind-energy components and food manufacturing, all riding the I-80, I-35, I-380 and I-29 corridors. With Council Bluffs intermodal and Mississippi River barge terminals feeding volume in and out, we plan trailers and appointment windows around what each Des Moines shipment actually needs.
Coverage reaches the wider metro too, including West Des Moines (7 mi), Urbandale (7 mi) and Ankeny (11 mi), so multi-stop and consolidated routing around Des Moines reads as one clean plan rather than a string of separate trips.
Des Moines is a longer haul at roughly 970 miles, so we run it as planned OTR transit of about two days rather than a quick turnaround, confirming the delivery window before dispatch. For shippers with regular volume we set up dedicated lanes and drop-trailer programs to keep capacity and appointment windows reliable.
