Move freight with usOUR COMPANY
Your freight.
Our direction.
Forward.
Northbound Transport Inc., also listed as NBT Inc., is based in Puyallup, Washington. Our work is interstate freight transportation: helping businesses move loads from one U.S. state to another.
Behind every shipment is a business preparing for what comes next. A pickup may be the start of a customer order, a delivery may support a busy receiving schedule, and the details between them matter. Our approach centers on understanding the load, discussing the route and giving customers a direct way to speak with dispatch.
Every shipment starts with the details. Tell us where your freight is going, what you’re moving, and when it needs to travel. Our dispatch team reviews your request and follows up to discuss pricing, availability, and the next steps.
Our Washington home is the starting point for a wider interstate focus. Whether your freight is crossing a neighboring state line or traveling farther across the country, share your lane and requirements with us so we can discuss the proposed move.
Whether you’re planning a shipment or exploring a career on the road, we make it easy to start a conversation.
Connect with NorthboundWHAT GUIDES US
A practical approach.
A personal connection.
Understand the shipment.
Useful planning starts with listening. Cargo type, shipment size, loading arrangements and delivery requirements all shape a transportation request. We encourage customers to share those details at the beginning, including anything that could affect access, handling or timing.
Make the conversation clear.
We want customers to know what information is needed and what comes next. Dispatch is your point of contact for discussing a quote, reviewing availability and confirming arrangements before scheduling. Questions are welcome, whether you are preparing your first request or planning another load.
Respect the people behind the freight.
Transportation involves more than a pickup and a destination. Shippers, drivers, receiving teams and business owners each have work to coordinate. Clear instructions and timely conversations help everyone prepare for their part of the journey.
Build the next chapter together.
We welcome conversations with customers about future freight needs, and with people interested in working with Northbound. Use our quote form to introduce a shipment or visit Careers to share your experience and resume.
