Easy to get there from here

By Road

There’s a reason why so many trucking, warehouse and logistics companies have their home base in the Cedar Rapids Metro. Sure, you can easily connect to other major cities via Interstate 80, Interstate 380 and our 4-lane highways; but while that connectivity is super convenient, it’s not why many carriers headquarter here. The primary reason? It’s the quality of our people. We have nice, highly-skilled employees with hardworking values who are the backbone of our many carriers.

Local companies tell us the labor force here sets them apart.

Easy access to class I railways

By Rail

Our strategically placed railways make it easy to move freight or transfer it at the local Travero transload facility.

And, our regional railway company can help connect you to the main lines if needed. CRANDIC (Cedar Rapids and Iowa City Railway Company) is a Class III railroad operating 60 miles of rail line and more than 40 miles of yard trackage.
