Simplifying the automotive supply chain
The automotive supply chain is unique to the automobile industry, incorporating Tier 1, Tier 2 and even Tier 3 suppliers and the practice of just-in-time manufacturing. All these components eventually go to the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) before new vehicles move to dealerships for sale.
By using InTek as your automotive logistics provider, you can rest assured that your business can navigate:

InTek auto logistics solutions
Between vehicles, parts and components, there are multiple ways to move this cargo across different origins and destinations. While truckload is still the most common, intermodal automotive logistics solutions can offer reliable capacity at a lower cost. And with plenty of automotive manufacturing activity occurring in Mexico, cross-border shipping services are key as well.
With thousands of carriers traversing North America, truckload (FTL) and less than truckload (LTL) offer flexible options to move automotive cargo across the continent quickly. Truckload services can handle parts, components and - with specialization - cars themselves, covering just about any route with ease. The added bonus with InTek? We can help convert truckload lanes to intermodal to save you even more.

Ample capacity, cost savings and a reduced carbon footprint are all benefits of intermodal transportation - and using it to ship your automotive freight allows you to enjoy each of those in your logistics operation. Intermodal can securely and easily carry all types of auto-related cargo across the continent, with an extensive door-to-door network combining class 1 railroads with drayage providers at every stop.
Many auto parts and supplies, along with cars and trucks, are manufactured in Mexico - and with nearshoring continuing to grow, the numbers should only increase. Getting these parts, supplies and cars across the border seamlessly then, becomes vitally important, so finding the right Mexico freight shipping services - like those provided by InTek, is a must.

Auto logistics solutions across the US & Mexico
While automotive freight journeys across the U.S. to reach American consumers, a significant portion of parts, components, and finished vehicles originates from Mexico - with more expected due to nearshoring.
To ensure consistent cross-border capacity and dependable service, it's essential to have a transportation provider adept at handling both sides of the border. With our extensive connections across North America - including many locations within Mexico - and cutting-edge intermodal solutions, InTek Logistics stands out as the ideal partner for your business.
