Managing freight—especially heavy-haul, oversized, time-sensitive, or high-value shipments—doesn’t have to be complicated. The Shipping Emporium, based in Barboursville, Virginia, is a third-party logistics (3PL) freight broker that makes it simple.
We do not operate warehouses or store freight—we arrange trucking and freight services through our trusted network of carriers. Our role is to connect you with the best LTL (Less Than Truckload) and TL (Full Truckload) shipping solutions—serving clients locally throughout Virginia and long-haul coast-to-coast between the East Coast and West Coast.
Whether it’s one pallet or an entire truckload, we handle every detail of the transportation process so you can focus on running your business.
