Knichel Logistics has wholesale rail contracts with the class 1 railroads , which include the Union Pacific as well as CSX , to ship its freight via railroad since 2003 . The contracts provide Knichel with access to approximately 70,000 53 ’ intermodal containers , and it services shipments through its network of core drayage carriers in every major intermodal market .
One of the differentiating factors of Knichel ’ s intermodal program versus other products that are out in the marketplace is managing the pick-up and delivery in house through its own network of carriers , which results in better control and ultimately better and more consistent service .
To further expand its service offerings and increase its overall value proposition to its customers , Knichel Logistics created a separate company – Knichel Logistics LTL – by purchasing a BlueGrace Logistics franchise in May of 2015 . This business opportunity has substantially raised Knichel ’ s ability to offer seamless LTL service to its existing customers while simultaneously attracting new business .
