Intermodal transportation is the method of transporting freight to more than one location utilizing multiple modes of transportation without handling the freight when changing modes. Intermodal transportation uses special trailers which allow the goods to be switched from one transportation mode to the other – while eliminating the necessity for the freight to be removed from the trailer.
