The Tri-State Difference

Most freight forwarders hand off your cargo and go silent. At Tri-State, every client gets a dedicated handler who knows your cargo, your suppliers, your timelines — and answers calls in the middle of the night.

"Tri-State has given us the ability to focus on our core business, saving us thousands in full-time staffing. Communication is phenomenal." — Sharon, VP Operations

Client Testimonials

REAL RESULTS FROM
REAL CLIENTS

★★★★★

"In my experience of dealing with 6 freight forwarders since I started my import business, you by far go further than anyone. Great communication, real-time updates regardless of time of day. Your prices on Air shipments from China cannot be beat. And giving me information on when I can save more — this is information my previous forwarders never provided."

"I don't even handle any aspect of the shipment anymore. Ben schedules the pickups, books the shipment and deals directly with my supplier for all shipments, allowing me to focus on growing my business. Aside from all the benefits, I am saving an average of $2,000 per shipment compared to my previous forwarders."
