Wilfred McGirt has been pulling containers from the Port of Long Beach and the Port of Los Angeles for over 15 years. When your box hits the terminal, WM Transports gets it out — fast, compliant, and on your schedule.
Port drayage is the short-haul movement of cargo containers between a marine terminal and a nearby warehouse, rail yard, or distribution center. It sounds simple — but anyone who's dealt with port congestion, chassis shortages, and terminal appointment windows knows it's anything but.
WM Transports specializes in this exact run. Wilfred McGirt started his trucking career as a company driver hauling port freight, learned the terminals inside out, and eventually went owner-operator so he could run the job exactly the way it should be done — with care, accountability, and zero tolerance for delays that are within his control.
Because Wilfred is both the owner and the driver, you're never dealing with a dispatcher who's never touched a steering wheel. When you call WM Transports, you talk to the person who will actually pick up your freight.
20ft, 40ft, and 45ft high-cube containers. Standard and refrigerated. If it comes off a vessel at POLB or POLA, we can move it.
We navigate POLB and POLA appointment systems so you don't have to. Wilfred monitors terminal windows, dual transactions, and gate hours to avoid costly detention and per diem charges.
Pier T, Pier J, Pier A, TraPac, Everport, Yusen, Wesco — we're familiar with every terminal operation at both the Port of Long Beach and the Port of Los Angeles.
Wilfred holds a current Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC), required for unescorted access to secured port and maritime facilities.
You get direct communication from the driver — not routed through a call center. Wilfred texts and calls you directly with pickup confirmations, ETAs, and delivery notifications.
Bills of lading, delivery receipts, and proof of delivery — all accurate, all on time. Wilfred's spotless FMCSA record extends to documentation. No surprises on your freight invoice.
Big carriers move volume. Owner-operators move freight with care. When Wilfred picks up your container, he's accountable in a way that a company driver at a large fleet simply isn't. His truck. His reputation. His business on the line with every load.
That accountability shows up in the details: he double-checks the container seal before leaving the yard, communicates proactively if a terminal goes into standby, and doesn't cut corners on pre-trip inspections because he knows a roadside inspection failure costs him — not just a faceless dispatcher.
