    Service Coverage

    Key Cities and Ports

    You need a partner who covers every important spot on the East Coast. PGL moves your goods using a strong network from New Jersey and New York down to Miami. We help you move shipments fast from the busiest ports, such as:

    • Port of NY/NJ – This is your main entrance to the Northeast.

    • Port of Baltimore – It is a big center for mid-Atlantic shipping.

    • PortMiami – This port helps with quick southern deliveries.

    • Savannah – It is an important part of Southeast shipping.

    When your container arrives at any of these ports, PGL acts in just a few hours. You do not have to wait days for a truck. Our East Coast trucking services get your cargo moving fast and safely.

    Regional Distribution

    You want your products to reach every store, warehouse, or customer, no matter where they are. PGL links big cities and regional centers with daily trips and flexible times. Our service covers:

    • New Jersey / New York – For Northeast shipping and store supply.

    • Philadelphia / Baltimore – In the middle for fast access to many states.

    • Charlotte / Atlanta – The main area for Southeast shipping, great for online stores and shops.

    • Orlando / Miami – Southern centers for sending out and delivering goods.

    You get help from our warehouse-to-door service. We connect our warehouses with our trucks, so your goods go smoothly from storage to delivery. You can pick full truckload (FTL), less-than-truckload (LTL), or special routes. PGL changes to fit your needs, whether you ship a lot or need extra care.

    PGL’s regional network gives you same-day shipping and on-time arrivals. You stay in charge, avoid delays, and keep your customers pleased.

    FTL and LTL Options

    You want your goods to get there fast and safe. PGL lets you pick Full Truckload (FTL) or Less-Than-Truckload (LTL). You choose what works for your shipment and how quick you need it.

    • FTL is best for big shipments or when you need a whole truck. Your cargo loads once and stays closed until it gets to you. This way, there is less handling and less chance of damage. You get direct delivery with fewer stops, so your goods get there faster.

    • LTL is good for smaller loads. You pay for only the space you use. PGL puts your shipment with others, so it costs less. This gives you more choices, but it might take longer because of extra stops.

    With East Coast trucking services from PGL, you control cost, speed, and safety. For example, a big pharmaceutical importer switched from LTL to FTL for sensitive goods. Delivery time dropped from four days to just one and a half. The risk of damage also went down because the cargo stayed sealed and untouched.

    You can see how each option works:

    PGL checks important numbers for every shipment:

    1. On-time delivery rate

    2. Damage rate

    3. Transit time

    4. Cost per shipment

    5. Customer satisfaction

    6. Load factor

    7. Accessorial charges

    8. Miles per gallon

    9. Driver turnover rate

    10. Vehicle utilization rate

    You get clear reports and real results. Your business stays ahead with reliable East Coast trucking services.

    Temperature-Controlled Transport

    You do not want food, medicine, or sensitive goods to spoil. PGL’s temperature-controlled trucks keep your cargo safe from start to finish. Our system uses real-time checks and smart sensors to watch temperature all the way.
