Container Intermodal Service

 

While intermodal piggybacking existed as early as the 1930s, the invention of a simple steel container established intermodal as we know it today. In 1952, Alaska Steamship Company created the first intermodal shipping container by converting World War II victory ships into vessels capable of handling shipping containers that could carry virtually any product.

Starting in 1956, Malcom McLean and his new company, Sea-Land, began working with maritime shippers, freight railroads and truckers to develop a common standard, allowing containers to be easily transferred across modes of transport.

Today, the shipping container has largely eliminated the need for handling individual pieces of cargo, resulting in drastically reduced shipping costs and delivery time. Alaska Steamship and McLean's invention directly shaped international supply chains still used today
