Interstate & Rail
Satisfying Market Demand

Garden City Terminal is a strategic gateway to rail and road distribution networks that offer the most efficient and reliable intermodal access to markets across the U.S. Southeast and Midwest including those with the fastest-growing populations and capital investments. Served by Class I rail service -- Norfolk Southern Railroad and CSX Transportation -- the facility's on-terminal ICTF provides unrestricted double-stack service offering two- to three-day transit times to major hubs throughout the Midwest, Gulf Coast and Southeast, including overnight service to Atlanta, the fastest of any North American port.

Immediate interstate access is available via Interstates 95 (North/ South) within 5.6 miles (9km) and 16 (East/ West) within 6.3 miles (10km). Combine this with the rail efficiencies noted above and Savannah's ports puts more than 70% of U.S. consumer within fast, easy reach.

With Savannah’s earned recognition as “the retail port,” 17 high-volume retail import distribution centers in the Savannah area are taking advantage of the port’s intermodal strength, as well as depth in ocean carrier services, to satisfy just-in-time inventory requirements. Together, Savannah-area distribution centers combine to cover over 14 million square feet and generate in excess of 500,000 TEUs annually.
