ACL’s operations are tailored to serve a wide variety of shippers and freight types.  Substantial barge and towboat fleets allow us to provide customers with maximum flexibility to meet schedule or delivery changes system wide.  Our proprietary ACLTrac® tracking system greatly enhances fleet management capabilities while supporting our customers’ supply chain management systems.

Through strategic partnerships, we also offer modal and inter-modal solutions that improve asset utilization for equipment owners and help shippers reach end-use markets with the most competitive transportation price structure.  These partnerships allow ACL to provide third-party logistics services to shippers who distribute goods throughout the inland rivers.
