LESS MEANS MORE
Check out our newest chassis! This 40-foot chassis weighs less than 5,000 pounds, nearly 2,000 pounds less than most standard 40-foot chassis. This weight reduction allows us to haul greater payloads ... right to your door.
With the right combination of truck, chassis, permits and cargo, payloads can exceed tradtional limits. This means greater efficiency for you.
In addition, by continuing to grow our chassis fleet, we are minimizing our reliance on pool chassis, creating even greater reliability.
Let Jetco help you safely and legally maximize your cargo weight, adding value to your business every step of the way.
Jetco has received bonded carrier status with the U.S. Customs Department. A bonded carrier is licensed by customs to carry duty unpaid goods. Because of our diverse fleet, our “in-bond” service applies to containerized freight, breakbulk/flatbed/out-of-gauge cargo and dry vans.
We obtained our bonded carrier status because you asked for it.
At Jetco, we take the time to listen to your needs.We will continue to build our fleet and services around our customers’ requirements.

What does bonded mean?
Sometimes a shipment is not allowed entry into the U.S. if the customs officer has found incorrect information on the documentation.
If the driver is bonded, customs will allow the driver to put the shipment in bond and take it to a bonded or inland sufferance warehouse where the shipment will wait for the correct documents.
Bonded is a term that is also used when a shipment is traveling through a country to get to another country (like a shipment from Canada to Mexico that has to go through the U.S.). Since the product will not be used or consumed in the U.S., it travels “in bond” under a transit bond through the U.S. and is customs cleared at the U.S.-Mexico port of entry.
