In this fast-paced global economy, time means money. MacMillan-Piper knows you can't afford to waste either. Since Jim Piper founded MacMillan-Piper in 1969, it has been providing prompt, efficient service for shippers around the world. Seattle/Tacoma are 600 miles closer to the Pacific Rim than any California port. With our network of marine terminals and intermodal facilities cargo moves expeditiously and on schedule. At MacMillan-Piper, your shipments are only minutes away from the docks. That saves you time and money. MacMillan-Piper (MP) is the largest Container Freight Station (CFS) in the Pacific Northwest. The company operates four facilities in Seattle and two in Tacoma, WA. MP has made a substantial commitment to the region with its purchase of two of the Seattle facilities and construction of a state of the art facility in Tacoma.

MP handles both import and export cargoes. Products range from lumber and paper to refrigerated cargo, steel, bentonite, copper oxide and dry bulk commodities, most delivered to us by railcar or truck. MP unloads roughly 11,000 railcars annually, and we transload, devan, loadout or dray approximately 6,000 containers per month.

To meet customer's drayage needs, MacMillan-Piper leases radio equipped tractors and super chassis. This allows for proper coordination of all shipments, ensuring we meet your deadlines. MacMillan-Piper uses time-saving technology, such as push-bin loaders to allow quick unloading of railcars and loading of ocean-bound containers. MP can move just about any product-from huge rolls of kraft linerboard, to heavy steel coils, to tons of bulk product such as animal feed. A sophisticated computer network with high-speed internet access allows us to receive and transfer information to our customers.

MacMillan-Piper has U.S. Customs on site at one of its facilities. MP is a designated Central Examination Station (CES) as well as the Contraband Enforcement Team (CET) site for the Port of Seattle. We are also USDA certified in both ports. This relationship with U.S. Customs ensures cargo is cleared quickly without costly delays.

MacMillan-Piper has the people, experience, equipment and facilities to insure your cargo is handled in a professional, reliable and seamless manner. We welcome the opportunity to serve you.
