Trucking
Over 65 motor freight companies serve the Crossroads Commerce Center market. Freight can be shipped overnight to 80% of the western marketplace with the other 20% second day, reaching more than 53 million people.

Port of Entry
Major importers and exporters from Northern Nevada utilize the international Bay Area ports for the transportation of their products. Both the Port of Oakland and Port of San Francisco offer regular schedules to all major ports in the world. Easy access to Interstate 80 strongly positions Crossroads to take advantage of the Bay Area international ports. By truck, each port can be reached within six hours, though typically most cargo is transported to and from the Bay Area on an overnight basis.
