Domestic & international freight forwarding services for shipping to and from New Orleans.

New Orleans is best known for tourism, but it is also a major player in the oil and gas, shipbuilding and aerospace manufacturing industries. As the largest city in Louisiana and home to the largest volume shipping port in the Western Hemisphere, there’s a constant flow of goods and raw materials in and out of New Orleans.

Whether you’re shipping to or from New Orleans, Direct Drive Logistics provides comprehensive freight forwarding services for every type of cargo-- LTL, FTL, over-the-road, intermodal, air and rail shipping, even international shipments. More than a “fill-in” shipping service, we’re a complete 3PL logistics solutions provider. For ground transport, our nationwide network of thoroughly vetted owner-operators and brokers who work to get the best rates possible make Direct Drive Logistics one "Big Easy" choice.

Direct Drive provides shipping solutions for moving cargo all over the world.

New Orleans Port intermodal drayage.

Transporting your goods a short distance between different modes of transportation is just as important as the long haul to a product's final destination. Our drayage services for truck, ship, or rail freight make the shipping process easier by transporting freight quickly and efficiently. We have the equipment and qualified drivers to ensure your goods are transported short distances safely during intermodal shipping.

Fully independently insured to minimize your costs & liability.

Many of the biggest and best-known logistics companies in the US only carry Contingent policies that mirror the motor carrier’s policy, leaving you vulnerable to losses completely out of your control. Direct Drive Logistics takes a different approach: we carry our own policies for Primary cargo/auto/errors and omissions to provide better coverage and give you one point of contact if you have cargo claims.

Anyone who’s spent any time in New Orleans knows what “lagniappe” is. If you don't, though, it’s a French word for “a little something extra.” When you get an extra beignet with the dozen you ordered, that's lagniappe. In the case of Direct Drive Logistics, the lagniappe is personalized service.

From the day you contract with us ‘til the minute your shipment arrives at its destination, you'll have one broker as your point of contact—answering any questions you may have, providing timely updates on any issues, and working on solutions. Thanks to real-time tracking on all shipments, you’ll also know exactly where your freight is every mile of the way.
