Between congested urban roads, weight-restricted downtown bridges and permitting for the Eagle Ford Shale oil fields, moving cargo in and out of San Antonio has unique hurdles. Local expertise is mandatory. Direct Drive Logistics has navigated San Antonio’s intricate shipping landscape daily.

Direct Drive Logistics has the experience and resources for smooth freight movement through complicated South Texas shipping corridors.
