Liquid bulk chemical logistics and oilfield support.
Tanker, ISO tank, drayage, truckload, ocean and air freight for chemical and industrial shippers, and the heavy haul that gets rigs and plant machinery to the site. US, Canada and Mexico, from Holmdel, New Jersey, since 1995.
Liquid bulk chemical transportation
Tanker freight for hazardous and non-hazardous chemicals is the core of the business. Each load begins with the product sheet: UN number, packing group, temperature and prior-cargo restrictions decide the trailer, the lining and the wash before a rate is quoted.
Oilfield support: chemicals to the field, heavy project cargo to the site
Drilling, completion and production chemicals move in bulk on the same tankers we run for the chemical industry. Rigs, reels, mud systems and plant components move as project cargo, with permits, escorts, route surveys, cranes and vessel load-out handled by the same team.
Oilfield chemicals
Bulk and packaged drilling, completion and production chemicals to the yard or the pad, hazmat and non-hazmat, with the paperwork the field expects.
Heavy project cargo
Rig mobilization and demobilization, oversize and overweight machinery on RGN, double drop and extendable trailers, cranes and rigging at both ends.
International moves
Breakbulk and flat-rack ocean freight as a licensed NVOCC, export packing, marine survey, biosecurity and customs documentation through door delivery.
Every mode a chemical shipper needs
One account team quotes the tanker, the container, the ocean leg and the storage. Hazmat and non-hazmat, US, Canada and Mexico.
Infrastructure programs
Some projects need more than a covered load. When a customer's program calls for storage, committed equipment or a long-term supply position, we source it, contract it and manage it as part of the service.
Chemical-rated, bonded or transload space located for your lanes and contracted for the life of the program. Staging, drum and IBC handling, cross-dock and outbound run by our team.
Tankers or vans committed to your lane for a season or a contract: consistent equipment, trained drivers, one wash protocol, capacity secured before demand peaks.
ISO tanks, storage trailers and tank containers on multi-month terms for strategic supply and buffer storage, placed and maintained where you need the product.
Thirty years in chemical freight, from one office in Holmdel
Total Connection was founded in 1995 by Luis Uribe and is still run by the people who quote, cover and track the freight. Named account relationships, a direct line, and operators who have stood on the dock while a tanker was loaded.
