We welcome container trucking requests in Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Davenport, Sioux City, Iowa City, Waterloo, Council Bluffs, Ames and surrounding communities. Send both pickup and delivery ZIP codes so our team can confirm route coverage and the available equipment.
Drayage may include moving a container between a confirmed ramp or intermodal facility and a warehouse or customer location, delivering a loaded container, or arranging an empty return. The exact origin, facility, route and service scope must be confirmed for each load.
How an Iowa drayage request works
Step 1
Share the load details
Tell us whether the container is import or export, its size, the cargo status and the requested pickup and delivery dates.
Step 2
Provide exact locations
Include the facility or business name, street address and ZIP code for each stop. For rail or intermodal moves, identify the ramp or terminal and booking details if available.
Step 3
Confirm the equipment and route
Our team reviews distance, container and chassis needs, facility access, timing and return instructions before confirming the available trucking plan.
Step 4
Coordinate pickup and delivery
After the plan is confirmed, Smiles coordinates the assigned truck movement and shares shipment updates through the customer portal and mobile apps.
