Our Strategic Location

Located in Ashtabula, Ohio on the southern shore of Lake Erie, Pinney Dock & Transport is ideally positioned to provide the highest levels of efficiency and superior service for all your shipping needs. The largest privately-owned dock on the Great Lakes, we have established vital links with key transportation resources.

One of our major customer service features is the rail service provided to and from our facility by both the Norfolk Southern and CSXT railroads. More important conduits than ever, each of these railways has been enhanced by their takeover of the Conrail lines. A number of dependable trucking companies in the immediate area are available to assist you with your transportation needs. Three certified truck scales conventionally accommodate the 375 to 400 trucks that move materials onto and off our docking facilities each day. Surface Transportation is furnished along Ohio State Rout 11, connecting with interstate 90 four miles to the south, the Ohio Turnpike 55 miles at Youngstown, and the Ohio River at East Liverpool for a powerful lake to river capability.

The transportation infrastructure combines to create a natural path for servicing the entire Midwest, as well as other major industrial centers throughout the United States.

Fundamental to our Quality service is a strategic location and transportation infrastructure that gives customers significant advantage in reaching the markets they serve.
