There's a lot that happens behind the scenes before freight reaches its destination.

Planning, coordination, timing and transportation all have to come together to keep things moving.

That's the part you don't always see, but it's what makes the delivery happen.

Moving freight takes more than a truck and a destination.

Communication, planning, experience and reliability all play a role in getting the job done.

That's what keeps the supply chain moving. đźššđź’¨

You've probably heard the term "intermodal," but what does it actually mean?

Intermodal transportation involves moving freight using more than one mode of transportation as it makes its way to its destination. 🚢 ➡️ 🚛

For Gilco, that means helping connect the maritime industry to the road.

Gilco Trucking is proud to sponsor the The Propeller Club, Port of Norfolk 3rd Annual Maritime Career Festival on September 19 at The Mariners’ Museum & Park.

We’re especially excited to bring our Iron Icon out for the day. It’s a chance for families to get an up-close look at a piece of trucking history and see just how much the industry has changed over the years.

Trucking has always been a major part of the maritime supply chain, and for Gilco, that history runs deep. We’ve been around since 1975, so bringing an old-school truck to an event focused on the future of the maritime industry feels pretty fitting.

The Maritime Career Festival is built around introducing families, students, and the next generation to the people, equipment, and careers that keep our ports and supply chain moving. We’re proud to support the Norfolk Propeller Club and be part of it.

Come see us, check out the Iron Icon, and spend a little time with the past while learning about where the maritime and transportation industries are headed next.

Saturday, September 19, 2026
10:00 AM–2:00 PM
The Mariners’ Museum & Park

We’ll see you there.

Did you know Gilco keeps specialized equipment on hand for moves that need something beyond a standard chassis?

Our 8-pin chassis can carry one 40-foot container or two empty 20-foot containers. That second configuration is especially useful when empty equipment needs to be repositioned. When the move allows, we can handle two empty 20s on one chassis instead of using two separate setups.

That kind of flexibility is why Gilco maintains a variety of specialized intermodal equipment. From empty-container repositioning to flat racks and other unusual moves, we can match the job with the equipment that makes sense.

The 8-pin chassis is only one piece of that fleet.

Have an intermodal move that needs a different setup? Let’s talk about it.
