“A trustworthy relationship is dependent on understanding what success looks like from both sides, which requires being honest about what each company’s agenda looks like and trusting that one side won’t drag the other into a situation that doesn’t fit. There are no hidden agendas.”

Cross-Border Trucking Services Are a Bit More Complicated

Getting freight to and from Mexico is where an experienced logistics partner becomes an invaluable asset, especially if you routinely plan to send shipments across the border. We take 4–5 different contacts and reduce them to a single customer-facing contact. Here’s a step by step look at how shipments get across the border.

Domestic carriers take freight to the border

If there is one misconception that most shippers have about cross-border freight, it is that domestic carriers also take the shipment across the border. The typical domestic carrier doesn’t have the authorization to simply drive a truck of goods through Mexican customs. Instead, most freight ends up at a U.S. border customs clearance warehouse awaiting the next step. If the timing of this is off at all, it could mean long delays at the border and higher shipping costs.

Transportation across the border requires a certified carrier to physically take the shipment over the border and through customs. Once through, a Mexican carrier takes the shipment to its final destination.
