Connect your intermodal terminal with the freight that should be moving by rail.
Commtrex helps intermodal terminal operators show their rail, truck, and port connections, the services and equipment handling they represent, and the markets they reach, then see which companies are researching intermodal options and work those opportunities through to freight.

Freight that could go intermodal often never finds the terminal that would carry it.
Shippers weighing truck against intermodal search by lane and market. The terminals that make the comparison easy — connections, services, and reach — get considered first.
Shippers compare modes by lane
A shipper moving DFW to Chicago weighs over-the-road against rail. They need the terminals at both ends, not a list of facilities.

- Truck vs intermodal

The terminal is not the operator
Buyers need to see the terminal's connections and the company behind it. Treating them as one record confuses who to talk to.

Service shown is not a slot
A terminal can represent lifts, storage, and drayage. Whether there is room on Thursday's train is a separate answer, given by your team.

From being discovered to pursuing the opportunity.
Be found on the lanes your terminal serves.
Present your terminal's rail, truck, and port connections, the units and services it handles, and the markets it reaches, so shippers can see the intermodal option clearly.
A complete profile improves discoverability. It does not guarantee ranking, placement, or leads.

A demand signal is not a lead or an opportunity. High interest is not guaranteed business.

Engage with the origin, destination, and unit type an account was researching attached, so the conversation is about converting a lane.

Represented services. A service shown is not available capacity, and the profile shows no live slots, chassis, or container availability.
Intermodal is chosen lane by lane.
Origin, destination, unit type, rail connection, and drayage at both ends decide whether intermodal beats truck. Commtrex keeps that context with your terminal.

Questions about Commtrex for intermodal terminals
How does Commtrex help intermodal terminals?
Commtrex helps intermodal terminal operators present their connections, services, and markets, understand which companies are researching intermodal options in their markets, engage those accounts, and manage lane opportunities.
Does Commtrex show container or slot availability?
No. Profiles show the units and services your terminal represents. Slots, chassis, and container availability are confirmed by your team.
Is our terminal shown separately from our company?
Yes. The operating company and each intermodal terminal are separate records, so buyers see both the facility's connections and who runs it.
My company is already on Commtrex. What should I do?
Use Claim Your Company to locate the existing profile and begin the claim process rather than creating a duplicate company.
Claim Your Company →Does Commtrex guarantee leads?
No. Commtrex provides discovery, demand intelligence, engagement, and commercial workflow tools designed to help providers identify and pursue relevant business opportunities. Results depend on market activity, provider fit, and the actions taken by each team.
Can we show drayage alongside the terminal?
Yes, where your company represents it. Drayage partners can also have their own carrier records, and both stay distinct.
What if I need intermodal service instead?
Use Find a Provider to search intermodal facilities and providers by market.
Find Intermodal Providers →Help shippers find the intermodal lane they were missing.
