What is an intermodal driver?

Intermodal drivers are professional truck drivers who specialize in transporting freight containers using multiple modes of transportation, such as trucks, trains, and ships. They typically move cargo between ports, rail yards, and distribution centers, ensuring containers are delivered efficiently and safely. Intermodal drivers often handle standardized shipping containers and may perform both local and regional hauls, depending on the employer and specific route. This role requires coordination with different carriers and a strong understanding of regulations related to container transport.
