TDS Logistics was formed to provide a reliable and dynamic option to combat the lack of reliable drayage capacity servicing the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. We formed as a professional bridge between the local small carriers that we rub shoulders with every day and the logistics professionals around the world searching for reliable and affordable service. The personal relationships we have with our contracted motor carriers allow us to often hold rates lower than one could find approaching carriers directly and enable us to provide great service options, not only for shippers and freight forwarders, but for co-brokers as well.
By vetting the top local carriers and combining or distributing their capacity, we are able to service any account, large or small, any time, peak-season – valley-season – whatever season, with an extreme level of flexibility and reliability. The majority of the motor carriers we hold contracts with are EDI integrated to our TMS system, allowing for up-to-the-minute accurate tracking information on shipments at all times.
Our management team consists entirely of experienced executives from various drayage carriers and freight forwarders. We know the LA/LGB port terminals like the back of our hands because we’ve been working with them for most of our lives. When our competitors are lost, our experience reveals us the solution.
