Port drayage · Houston · Oakland

From the port.
To your dock.
On the gate clock.

SK Transportation is a container drayage carrier. We pull your boxes from the Port of Houston and the Port of Oakland, track every mile live, and watch the last free day so you never pay for one you didn't need.

How a move runs

Four steps. One dispatch picture.

You see the same screen our dispatch sees: appointment, pickup, live ETA, delivery photos, and the empty's return.

Services

Drayage is the whole business. Not a side line.

Every truck, chassis, driver, and line of software at SK exists to move containers through a terminal gate on time.

Import and export drayage

Terminal to consignee and shipper to terminal at both ports. Appointments and gate passes are booked through the terminal's own system, so the truck arrives with a confirmed slot.

  • Port Houston Express Gate Pass appointments
  • Oakland terminal appointments and holds monitored live
  • Rail moves to and from UP and BNSF ramps

Yard storage and pre-pull

When your dock can't take the box before the last free day, we pull it to our yard on our own chassis and deliver when you're ready. Demurrage avoided, schedule kept.

  • Secure yard at 1701 Massey Tompkins Rd, Baytown
  • Chassis stays with the box, no split or swap charges
  • Gate log and photos for every box in and out

Transload and cross-dock

Ocean container to over-the-road trailer near both ports. Floor-loaded, palletized, or live unload, with same-day turn when the schedule calls for it.

  • Bay Area and Houston-area transload partners
  • Empty returned to the terminal the same day
  • Overweight boxes moved on tri-axle chassis
Where we run

Two ports. One operations team.

Houston and Oakland run on one dispatch picture, so there's no handoff between coasts and no "let me check with the other office."
