Terminal Exchange Services TXS, wishes to announce our most recent addition to our national Network of Secure Trailer-parking facilities with our newest member in Long Beach and Wilmington California.

TXS is  a consulting and marketing firm specializing in providing “for-hire”, over-the-road carriers professionally managed, hi-tech, state-of-the-art secure parking facilities in a growing nationwide network providing high security, service oriented ‘safe-havens” for trucking company fleets.

Fast Lane Transportation Inc., a leading container storage, maintenance and repair company with four strategic locations on the West Coast has expanded its intermodal operations in the LA/Long Beach  area to include secure trailer parking for clients of over-the-road, for hire fleet carriers, logistic providers and drayage transporters with a 50 acre facility that has 24/7 on-site security, 24/7 access, security lighting,  hot-shot hostler assisted staging, inventory controls, document handling and driver amenities.  In addition, secure website inventory controls will soon be accessible to our contracted clients giving them up-to-the-minute detailed information about their equipment and cargo.

TXS newest facility is within one half mile of the port of Los Angeles and the port of Long Beach and one mile from the Intermodal Container Transfer Facility (ICTF). Though location is important, TXS believes this facility’s most important feature is it represents a safe haven for drivers and their equipment to help in the prevention of cargo theft.

In addition, this location is in the process of installing a “state-of-the-art” Video Surveillance and is working towards meeting the cargo safety criteria’s established for C-PTAT certification by Homeland Security.

“We are dedicated to providing a safe, conveniently located facility that emphasizes not only the protection of the shippers cargo, but gives transportation companies operations managers a strategically located facility that will help them maximize the volume of freight they can stage and transfer to their various regional locations. It gives them the flexibility to move freight during off-peak hours avoiding the congestion inherent traveling on the L.A. freeways,” says, J.P. Harwood, President of TXS.

Other services available at this location are container storage, chassis storage, trailer repair and maintenance, tire service, trailer washout, reefer maintenance along with all aspects of container and chassis repair.

In addition to the Long Beach and Wilmington locations, TXS will soon be establishing the same services at the locations in Oakland and Adelanto California.
