Intermodal Loading Guide

The BNSF Load & Ride Solutions Team offers a complete on-line guide for loading and securing intermodal shipments.   If you have Acrobat Reader software on your hard drive, click on the Icon below to view the loading guide, otherwise click here to download the free Adobe Reader software.   If you have any questions on proper loading or securement of intermodal loads, please contact the nearest Damage Prevention rep listed on our Contact List Web Page or Email LARS@BNSF.Com to request assistance.

IMPORTANT: Use of BNSF loading and securement procedures are restricted to shipments moving on BNSF and approval must be obtained from Load and Ride Solutions Reps prior to shipping.   BNSF loading methods are not authorized with other rail carriers, and it is the shipper's responsibility to get authorization from the receiving carrier if our methods are used over their line.
