GREEN BAY, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 4, 2026-- Schneider National, Inc. (NYSE: SNDR), a premier multimodal provider of transportation, intermodal and logistics services, is celebrating 35 years of delivering flexible Intermodal solutions that drive efficiency, help control costs and unlock growth for customers.

Schneider provides decades of proven, scalable intermodal expertise at a time when shippers need reliability and flexible capacity. The company has differentiated its offering through company-owned assets, unique cross-border solutions and a dedicated team focused on continuous innovation.

Notable intermodal accomplishments over 35 years include:

• Scaling to offer intermodal shipping in nearly every major U.S. market within one year of launching.
• Investing in company-owned chassis and containers for greater reliability and control for both shippers and drivers.
• Growing Schneider’s partnership with CPKC to offer the fastest and most direct service between Mexico and the Midwest.
• Opening a new cross-border lane with CPKC and CSX in 2024, directly connecting Mexico with the Southeast United States.
• Building and operating one of the industry’s largest battery electric vehicle (BEV) fleets, which supports the company’s Intermodal operations in California.
• Over 90% of Schneider’s domestic dray moves are completed by uniformed company dray drivers, which provides shippers enhanced reliability.
• Offering drivers fulfilling career opportunities with consistent freight, well-maintained equipment, competitive pay and superior home time frequency.
• Launching Fast Track, a premium Intermodal service for time‑sensitive, high‑touch freight, combining priority rail placement, expedited drayage, proactive control‑tower management and an asset‑based recovery backstop.

“With more than 60 intermodal rail hubs across North America and some of the most reliable cross-border lanes, Schneider Intermodal has grown into a premier network that delivers speed and consistency for our customers,” said Schneider Senior Vice President and General Manager of Intermodal Michael Baumgardt. “Our continued success is a direct result of the innovative strategies and dedication our associates and rail partners bring every day. This milestone is a testament to their hard work and our shared commitment to delivering exceptional shipping experiences.”

Why Schneider: effortless experience for intermodal shippers

Company-owned intermodal equipment

One key differentiator of Schneider Intermodal is company-owned assets, including tractors and approximately 23,900 chassis and 26,800 containers. A strategic investment decision made more than a decade ago, this offers shippers greater control, consistency and availability. Schneider’s lightweight, company-owned equipment allows shippers to deliver more freight per shipment, for up to 10% more per payload.

Cross-border performance

Schneider has experienced exponential growth in cross-border Intermodal, and the demand continues to grow. Through its partnership with CPKC, the company offers a zero hand-off, single-rail cross-border route. Additionally, Schneider and CPKC have achieved a 99.98% cargo security rating in and out of Mexico.

Continuous innovation

The Schneider Intermodal team is focused on staying ahead of market demands. The company’s newest offering, Fast Track, delivers some of the most reliable and consistent intermodal lanes in the industry. With 24/7 shipment monitoring and proactive communication from an expert team, shippers benefit from real-time visibility and minimized disruptions backed by Schneider’s asset-based multimodal network.

Professional drivers

Schneider’s Intermodal service also provides opportunities for drivers. Schneider Intermodal drivers are offered consistent freight with access to well-maintained company-owned chassis that save time and headaches. With competitive pay, predictable routes and superior home time frequency, Schneider Intermodal drivers enjoy steady miles and the opportunity to grow their careers and contribute to a successful transportation solution.

In the next 35 years and beyond, Schneider will continue to create innovative new opportunities for shippers, helping make it easier to achieve business goals and navigate shifting supply chains.

Whether it’s expanding cross-border solutions, investing in one of the largest BEV fleets in the industry or launching premium services like Fast Track, Schneider Intermodal continuously evolves to outperform existing standards and deliver innovative service for years to come.
