Cross-Border Shipping FAQ.
Do you handle Mexican customs clearance?
Yes. Our Customs House Brokerage & Compliance team manages import and export clearance on both sides of the border — classification, documentation, and USMCA compliance — so your freight and its paperwork move together.
Which border crossings do you cover?
We move freight through all major US–Mexico gateways, including El Paso–Ciudad Juárez, Laredo–Nuevo Laredo, McAllen–Reynosa, and Otay Mesa–Tijuana, supported by Platinum offices in El Paso, McAllen, and San Diego.
How long does shipping freight to Mexico take?
Expedited cross-border ground can deliver in as little as 24–48 hours on major lanes. Standard FTL and LTL transit depends on origin, destination, and border crossing — we quote door-to-door transit times up front, and track every shipment in transit.
Can you support a nearshoring transition?
Yes. We help manufacturers moving production to Mexico design their cross-border supply chain: lane planning, customs strategy, warehousing on either side of the border, and scalable capacity as volumes ramp.
Do you offer both FTL and LTL to and from Mexico?
Yes — full truckload, less-than-truckload, expedited ground, exclusive-use vehicle, and air charter, northbound and southbound, with door-to-door service.
How do I get a cross-border freight quote?
