Freight Container Storage

This storage yard is used for staging intermodal freight containers awaiting transportation or repositioning. Operated by companies such as J.B. Hunt, these containers are designed to move freight efficiently between trains and trucks without unloading their contents. Stacking containers conserves space, while wheeled trailer chassis allow them to be transported by highway. Facilities like this play an important role in the freight transportation network, supporting the movement of goods between rail terminals, distribution centers, and commercial destinations.
