3PL Freight Brokerage

Driven Transportation

We combine twelve decades of experience with modern technology to provide transportation and brokerage solutions that are not just effective, but scalable, service-driven and exceptionally reliable.

Transportation Solutions to suit any need

Whatever your freight, wherever it’s headed, we have a flexible and reliable solution to meet your needs. Explore our core service offerings below.

Full Truckload (FTL)

When your shipment requires the full space of a trailer, our FTL services provide the capacity and reliability you need. We offer solutions for dry van, refrigerated, and flatbed freight, ensuring your cargo travels exclusively and directly to its destination, minimizing handling and transit time.

Less-Than-Truckload (LTL)

For smaller shipments that don’t require a full truck, LTL is a cost-effective solution. We consolidate your freight with other shipments heading in the same direction, allowing you to pay only for the space you use without sacrificing service quality or visibility.

Intermodal Solutions

Combining the cost-efficiency of rail with the flexibility of trucking, our intermodal services offer a smart solution for long-haul shipments. We manage the entire process, from container pickup to final delivery, providing a sustainable and economical alternative to over-the-road shipping.

Rail Drayage

Need to move your containers to and from major rail hubs? Our drayage services are critical for keeping your international and domestic supply chains moving, preventing delays and minimizing demurrage costs with timely and coordinated transportation.

Expedited Shipping

When time is critical, our expedited services deliver. We use dedicated service lanes and optimized routing to ensure your most urgent shipments arrive on schedule. From cargo vans to straight trucks, we have the right equipment for your time-sensitive freight.

Asset-Based Trucking

When you need the ultimate in control and reliability, our private fleet of 162 trucks operating out of Minnesota and Missouri offers dedicated capacity. This service provides a guaranteed, direct solution for your high-volume or recurring freight, ensuring consistent service and on-time delivery from a partner you can trust.

Dedicated Account Managers

Our Transportation & Brokerage clients enjoy a single point of contact for their accounts. Based in our offices in Minnesota & Missouri – and available to take your call – they’re part of our promise to always keep a service-first mentality.

Experienced Drivers

When you choose our in-house fleet of trucks for your needs, you or your consignee will be working with one of our seasoned drivers, consistently. Their years of experience at Murphy range from fifteen to fifty.
