Good experience and great servicePosted on Google EBROS EXPRESS Operations TeamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience working with this company. Communication was always clear and professional, and they were responsive whenever I had questions. They provided quality loads, handled everything efficiently, and made the process smooth from start to finish. I appreciate their honesty and reliability, and I look forward to continuing to work with them. Highly recommended!Posted on Google Jamaal WilsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just did a load for them from a military base and the broker was pretty upfront and good to work with. They onboarded my company Dimensional Transport pretty quickly and they are quick to answer calls; excellent communication. The rate was pretty fair and when the unexpected came up, they stepped up and compensate accordingly. I will definitely like to run for them again in the near future.

Philadelphia International Airport is strategically located within a one-day drive of half the U.S. population, making it a vital inland gateway for international trade. Navigating the expansive “Cargo City” facilities and the newly developed 136-acre West Cargo area requires specialized local knowledge and rigorous federal security credentials. At FCT, we operate as a premier bonded trucking company in PHL, authorized to handle “in-bond” international freight that has not yet cleared customs—providing essential flexibility for high-value imports.
By deploying our dedicated fleet as a TSA approved trucking company, we eliminate the terminal delays that ground standard carriers. Our drivers hold the federal clearances necessary for immediate, unescorted access to PHL’s cargo buildings (including the major hubs for UPS, FedEx, and American Airlines), ensuring your time-sensitive life science shipments or e-commerce goods are recovered without wait.
In a market defined by world-class healthcare and aerospace industries, security is a non-negotiable mandate. FCT is a fully Veroot-registered carrier, giving freight forwarders and logistics managers 100% visibility into our security standing, insurance, and driver vetting. We encourage all of our partners requiring reliable PHL freight services to ask about our Veroot roster to see our absolute commitment to safety and compliance firsthand.
Expedited recovery and drop-off at all PHL cargo buildings and the new West Cargo complex.
Secure transport for international cargo moving “in-bond” to final clearance points or CFS.
Expert routing and handling for out-of-gauge (OOG) machinery and industrial equipment.
Precision cold-chain and security-focused logistics tailored to Philly’s “Cellicon Valley.”
Secure, high-speed transport for both Less-than-Truckload and Full-Truckload freight.
High-security PHL freight services backed by a fully documented chain of custody.
Efficiency at PHL is about security and timing. Because we are a TSA approved trucking company, our drivers bypass standard security wait times and escort requirements at the cargo terminals. Furthermore, our familiarity with the I-95 corridor and the Tinicum-Island Road relocation ensures your freight hits the road faster than the competition.
Being a bonded trucking company allows us to move your international air freight from PHL to another port or a bonded warehouse before it officially clears U.S. Customs. This is a critical service for international shippers looking to manage duties more efficiently or move cargo to specialized cold-storage pharma facilities for clearance.
We operate with absolute transparency. You can request to view our Veroot roster at any time. This industry-standard platform allows you to confirm instantly that our drivers are fully background-checked and authorized to handle sensitive air cargo at PHL.
Yes. While we provide dedicated local drayage around PHL and the greater Delaware Valley, our services also include regional line-haul, connecting Philadelphia directly to major markets in New York City, Baltimore, Washington D.C., and across the Northeast.
