Intermodal moves are only as good as their handoffs. A container comes off rail or ferry, and the road leg has to collect and deliver in the window before storage charges start. HaulierMagic keeps the road side of the move on one board.
Trusted by UK haulage operators
Intermodal combines rail, sea and road to move freight further with fewer road miles. For the road haulier, the job is the first and last mile: getting a box to or from a terminal inside a specific window, coordinated with a timetable you do not control.
Miss the slot and the box waits, storage and demurrage build, and the customer feels it.
The road leg is short, but its timing carries the whole move.
Run intermodal road legs off phone calls and spreadsheets, and the terminal clock is the risk. Fewer missed slots, fewer storage charges, and a cleaner day.
Intermodal road operators often run a TMS plus separate nav, tracking and ePOD tools. The rail and ferry legs stay with your booking systems; the road operation runs from one live picture.
Keep what works. Drop the double entry.

Peter Brown Managing Director, Jack Richards & Son No. HaulierMagic is a UK road-haulage TMS. It runs the road legs of an intermodal move, the first and last mile and terminal collections and deliveries, around the rail and port timings you are working to. Rail and ferry bookings stay with your own systems.
Collections and deliveries sit on one shared board planned to the window, with live status on the Arrivals Board, so slots are planned properly rather than tracked through messages.
