⚓ Terminology Tuesday: Intermodal ⚓

Ever wonder how cargo moves from a ship to its final destination hundreds or even thousands of miles away?

Today's maritime term is Intermodal.

Intermodal Transportation is the movement of cargo using two or more modes of transportation—such as ships, railroads, and trucks—to deliver goods efficiently from origin to destination.

At Port Pascagoula, intermodal connectivity is a key part of our success. Cargo arriving by vessel can seamlessly transition to rail or truck transportation, allowing products to reach markets across the United States quickly and efficiently.

From forest products and steel to project cargo and industrial equipment, intermodal transportation helps keep supply chains moving and supports economic growth throughout Mississippi and beyond.
