Surface Freight are the cargo carriers who travel via road, they either work as an intermodal means of transportation or a complete solution to deliver cargo from one place to another.

Trucks are commonly used in intermodal transit of goods.
Here, the space available in the truck is divided among different consignments of different organizations or individuals.
