Established in 1980, Independent Dispatch is a freight forwarder and contract motor carrier. Independent Dispatch invests in people, equipment and technology to handle demanding transportation needs in North America. Whether the shipment is large or small, simple or complex, the company takes full responsibility for getting loads to their destinations reliably and on time.

The company specializes in intermodal transportation throughout North America, long haul truck transportation throughout the United States and regional trucking throughout the Northwest. Independent Dispatch is located in Portland.
