US-Mexico freight

Nuvocargo is built for US-Mexico cross-border freight — with licensed customs brokers, bilingual operations teams, and carrier networks on both sides of the border.

34%

Faster border crossings

AI-powered customs document processing reduces average border dwell time by 34%. Fewer delays, better OTIF, and less time chasing your freight at the crossing.

24/7

Bilingual ops coverage

Our operations team is bilingual and on around the clock — in the US and in Mexico. When your freight has a problem at a border crossing at midnight, someone picks up.

Most companies manage separate brokers, customs agents, and carriers on each side of the border. We replace that fragmented stack with a single managed service — one team, one platform, one bill.

300K+

Vetted carriers in our network

Access to 300,000+ vetted carriers with strong US-Mexico lane coverage — including dry van, reefer, flatbed, and specialized equipment for manufacturing freight.
