Marvin Transportation runs same-day courier and freight service in Riverside & Inland Empire, with dispatch open around the clock and proof of delivery on every job.
The Inland Empire is where port freight goes to be sorted. Millions of square feet of distribution space sits along the 10, the 60 and the 15, and the freight that fills it arrives from Long Beach and Los Angeles on a schedule that is rarely under anyone’s control. Serving it well means capacity that flexes and a dispatch desk that stays open.
We run drayage inland from the ports, cross-dock and deconsolidation, dedicated fleet for distribution centres with steady volume, and everyday courier and LTL work for the manufacturers and suppliers spread across both counties.

Why Inland Empire operations use us
Port to warehouse on one carrier
We pull at the port and deliver inland ourselves, so there is no handoff and no second vendor to chase.
Capacity that flexes
Peak season and inbound surges are planned for in advance rather than turned away when they arrive.
Cross-dock instead of storage
Same-day strip and rebuild, which usually beats paying a warehouse to hold freight overnight.
Dedicated fleet for steady volume
A vehicle and driver assigned to your distribution centre at a contract rate, which costs less than repeated on-demand calls.
Equipment for every dock
Liftgate and pallet jack where the site needs it, flatbed and step-deck for oversized loads.
Lanes north on the same agreement
Sacramento, the Bay Area and the Central Valley on fixed line haul routes from here.
How a run works
Call or book online
Pickup address, destination, what is moving and when it has to land. Dispatch confirms the vehicle and a real ETA.
Nearest driver assigned
We dispatch from the closest qualified vehicle rather than a central depot, which is what makes local pickup fast.
Picked up and tracked
The driver verifies piece count and condition, then the run is GPS tracked with milestone updates to you.
Delivered with proof
Signature, timestamp and photo proof of delivery in your inbox. Temperature logs attach when cold chain applies.

Questions about Inland Empire service
Do you pull containers from Long Beach and LA into the Inland Empire?
Yes, and we deliver inland ourselves rather than handing off. Send the container number and terminal and we will confirm the timing.
Can you cross-dock rather than warehouse freight?
Yes. Same-day strip and rebuild for regional distribution, which avoids a storage charge and a day of transit.
Do you offer dedicated vehicles for a distribution centre?
Yes. For steady daily volume a dedicated vehicle and driver at a contract rate usually costs less than booking on demand.
How far do you cover?
Across Riverside and San Bernardino counties, from Chino and Ontario out to Redlands, Perris and Temecula, plus lanes to the ports and north.
Can you run freight from here to Northern California?
Yes, on scheduled line haul lanes to Sacramento, the Central Valley and the Bay Area with contract rates.

Send the lane and the volume. For recurring distribution work we will price it as a lane rather than quoting each trip.
