Road, Barge, or Rail — the Choice is Yours
January 25th, 2008 by Rubb
A recent article in The Powder and Bulk Channel weighed the environmental and economic considerations to take into consideration when choosing between the options of moving bulk materials. While trucking tonnage offers the most flexibility and a low cost of entry compared to barge or rail movement, its hidden costs are high, especially in regards to the environmental impact per ton of bulk material moved.
Whatever the decision regarding bulk materials handling, our bulk storage buildings can accommodate your needs. As a flexible alternative to vertical silos or traditionally dark industrial buildings, our structures provide an airy, translucent roof that supplies rich natural lighting. Our buildings are weathertight, rugged, and customizable to accommodate nearly any site imaginable.
When preparing your materials for transport, the customization options of Rubb structures are endless. Rubb buildings typically have a large front door to accommodate lifts and other trucks, and are a familiar site at ports worldwide. In the case of Amtrak, a building was even assembled over railways to allow trains to enter and exit the service facility.
Whether your company relies on road, barge, or rail, our buildings will fit your site and offer you unmatched value and performance in a storage building.
