Flatbed & Step Deck Trucking in Sabine Pass, TX

Seventeen miles straight down TX-87 and Gulfway Drive from the yard — about 22 minutes, one road the whole way.

The LNG build-out at the end of TX-87

Sabine Pass is where two of the biggest construction stories on the Gulf Coast are happening at once: Golden Pass LNG under Bechtel and Sempra’s Port Arthur LNG expansion, both stacked along the ship channel. Projects that size eat freight — mats by the hundreds, pipe, modules, temporary facilities, and a constant churn of contractor equipment. All of it funnels down one corridor, TX-87 out of Port Arthur, and our yard sits at the top of that corridor. For the subcontractors working those sites, we are the flatbed carrier that does not have to cross the county to reach the job.

We have already been through the gates

This is not theoretical coverage. We have delivered to the Bechtel Energy Port Arthur site on South Gulfway Drive and to Gate B addresses in Sabine Pass, so the drill is familiar: the truck manifests, the check-in queue, the escort rules once you are inside the fence. Big EPC sites run on procedure, and a carrier who shows up not knowing the procedure costs everyone an afternoon. Give dispatch your gate, your delivery window, and the receiving contact on the PO, and the driver arrives having done this exact run before.

One road in, one road out

The geography of Sabine Pass is unforgiving — TX-87 is effectively the only way in, and when a site pushes hundreds of trucks a day down it, timing is everything. Being 22 minutes up that same road lets us do things distant carriers cannot: hold a load at our yard and launch it to hit a gate window on the minute, re-sequence when the site shuffles its delivery board, or turn a second load the same day instead of deadheading home to Houston. On a schedule-driven LNG job, the carrier’s distance from the gate is a real line item, whether or not it is written down.

Mats, pipe, and module-support freight

The load mix headed down TX-87 fits our trailers exactly. Timber and crane mats for work pads on soft channel-side ground. Bundled pipe and spools from area fab shops. Skidded equipment, generators, light towers, and the sea of temporary infrastructure a peak-manpower site consumes. Step decks handle the taller skids, flatbeds take the steel and mats, and for the odd overweight piece we know which permits the route requires before the load is booked. If the freight supports an LNG site at Sabine Pass, chances are we have hauled something like it there already.

Straight answers

Sabine Pass freight questions

+Do you deliver to the Golden Pass and Port Arthur LNG construction sites?

Yes — we have completed deliveries to the Bechtel Energy Port Arthur site on South Gulfway Drive and to Gate B addresses in Sabine Pass. We work under your site clearance; you provide the gate and window, we handle the truck side.

+How do you handle the delivery windows on the big LNG jobs?

We stage from our own yard 22 minutes up TX-87, so we can launch a load to hit a window on the minute and adjust same-day when the site re-sequences. No overnight staging fees, no truck stuck three hours out.

+Can you handle oversize pieces on the TX-87 route?

Within legal and permitted limits, yes. TX-87 south of Port Arthur is a straightforward permit route we know well. Send dimensions and weight to dispatch at (409) 540-9398 and we will tell you quickly whether it moves on our equipment.
