Dry Van Capacity In
Columbus, OH
Columbus is positioned within a one-day drive of nearly half the US population, and Rickenbacker is one of the few purpose-built cargo-focused airports in the country. I-70 and I-71 cross in the middle of the metro.
Retail and apparel distribution built this market and still anchors it. The Rickenbacker inland port combines air cargo, rail and a large surrounding warehouse footprint, which makes it unusual — most inland ports have rail but no meaningful air.
The workhorse of domestic freight. Fully enclosed 53-foot trailers for palletized and floor-loaded general commodities, moving dock to dock without the temperature or securement complications of specialised equipment.

Columbus industries we serve
Dry Van Handled
Properly
Load Securement
Load bars, straps and proper blocking on every floor-loaded shipment. Freight that shifts in transit is freight that arrives damaged.
Appointment Discipline
Receivers that run tight dock windows get a driver who arrives inside them, and a call from dispatch before the window is at risk — not after.
No Re-Brokering
The truck you were quoted is the truck that shows up. Your freight is not posted back to a board at a lower rate.
One Point Of Contact
A dispatcher who knows your account and can answer where the load is without opening a ticket.

Honest Capacity Answers
Consistently one of the better-balanced Midwest markets. Lake-effect snow affects northern approaches more than the metro itself.
Dry Van Built For This Market
Length 53 ft, Max payload 45,000 lb, Doors swing or roll. If your freight sits outside those numbers we will route it to the right equipment rather than force it into the wrong trailer.
No Re-Brokering
The truck quoted for your Columbus, OH load is the truck that arrives. When volume exceeds our own fleet we say so and place it with a vetted partner — we do not quietly re-post your freight at a lower rate.
One Dispatcher, Not A Queue
You get a person who knows your account and the Columbus market, and who can tell you where the truck is without opening a ticket. That is the whole difference on a load that goes sideways.
