Drayage refers to the short-distance transportation of cargo, typically between ports, rail terminals, and warehouses — often serving as the first or last leg in an intermodal supply chain.
A shipping container unloaded at the Port of Los Angeles is transported by a drayage truck to a nearby rail terminal for further cross-country transport.
