Asset-Based Dry Van Freight Services
Michigan freight is dominated by the automotive industry — OEM plants and a deep tier of parts suppliers around Detroit — along with furniture out of Grand Rapids, food processing, and machinery. Auto and JIT loads run on tight, sequenced schedules, so we plan equipment and appointment windows around what each shipment actually needs rather than one template for all.
Michigan's freight ties heavily to cross-border trade with Canada. The Ambassador Bridge and the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel move enormous truck volume, and inland freight flows through Detroit-area CSX and NS intermodal ramps plus lake ports at Detroit and Muskegon. Whether you're feeding the auto plants or consolidating outbound to the Southeast, we position trailers to match.
Local conditions get planned for, not discovered. Hard winters with lake-effect snow, especially on the west side toward Grand Rapids, and hard freezes from December through March; congestion and tight plant delivery windows around metro Detroit that we build into timing.
Michigan is a 2-3 day run from our Pineville terminal near Charlotte, up through the I-75 corridor into the Detroit metro. We schedule it as planned OTR transit, and for shippers with steady Detroit or Grand Rapids volume we set up dedicated lanes to keep capacity and windows reliable.

FAQ
Plan on roughly 2-3 days from our Charlotte-area terminal on scheduled OTR transit, typically up the I-75 corridor into the Detroit metro and across to Grand Rapids. We confirm a firm delivery window before we dispatch.
We cover Detroit, Grand Rapids, Lansing, and Flint, running I-94, I-96, I-75, and I-69. On regular lanes we set up dedicated capacity so trucks are there when you need them.
Winter is the main factor: lake-effect snow toward Grand Rapids and hard freezes from December through March, plus tight plant delivery windows around Detroit. We build those conditions into transit commitments so schedules hold.
