Transportation

Capable, lean and efficient. That’s who we are.

Our 100% owned and operated trucking fleet runs throughout the Mid-Atlantic, providing trusted, cost-effective, full-scope transportation management solutions for customers with full or partial distribution needs. For complete and open communication, our Dispatching Software System provides state-of-the-art tracking capabilities from the time a shipment is placed to its delivery. We know delivery time is as, if not more, important than ship time. And since we're not burdened with legacy acquisitions like other carriers, we can serve as a buffer against the outside pressures of the market, giving you complete confidence in our services operating under one platform.

Our Drivers

Our drivers are never alone. They are provided with all tools necessary to communicate shipment status events, ask questions, and provide the level of service that is expected from our customers.

Partner Carriers

Allen Distribution has teamed up with the best LTL and TL carriers to broker freight for you at the price and value you deserve. Our pre-qualified asset-based partner carriers go through a detailed screening process to ensure the highest level of customer satisfaction. All partners are fully insured and required to meet strict safety requirements. We offer a single source for dispatching, billing, invoicing and problem resolution for all our services, including our partner carrier service. Whether you need dry vans, flatbeds, reefers or intermodal trailers, we'll find a solution that works for you.

Port Containers

Allen Distribution handles thousands of containers a year. That's experience you can trust. We are a member of the Uniform Intermodal Interchange & Facilities Access Agreement (UIIA), allowing us to partner with fellow member shipping lines to give you quick turnarounds and expedited delivery. Our trucks, and those of our partner carriers service the ports of New York, Newark NJ, Philadelphia PA and Baltimore MD, and allow us to handle your container needs throughout the Northeast.

Intermodal

We utilize several intermodal ports and rail yards for complete transportation coverage and greater efficiency. We service CSX's Chambersburg, PA location and Norfolk Southern's Harrisburg, PA location, offering direct service to our customers.

Confidence

Allen Distribution is an asset-based company, offering great value to our clients by shielding them from current market conditions. We have the ability to offer dedicated capacity on a daily and a lane level. Whether it is with our asset based fleet, or partner carriers, we negotiate the lowest possible rate, without jeopardizing service levels, and pass the savings back to our customers.
