Facilities within 75 miles of Chicago, ordered by city. Compiled from railroad public directories and independent verification; details change, so confirm service, access, and commodities with the facility before shipping. Directory last updated July 2026. See them on the map.
This directory lists 78 transload facilities within 75 miles of Chicago, spanning Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Wisconsin. That radius is a normal drayage leg, so all of them are realistic options for freight moving through Chicago.
Facilities in the Chicago area are served by NS, BNSF, IHB, CN, CSX, UP, CSS, CPKC, and 11 more. Choosing the terminal on the line that already serves your lane usually beats choosing the closest one.
The Chicago-area facilities in this directory handle dry bulk, liquid bulk, agriculture, forest products, metals, machinery & dimensional, and 3 more. Most handle several categories, so filter by what you ship rather than assuming a site is single-purpose.
Your listing here is free. Rebulk also builds the software side: railcar tracking, BOL and scale ticket automation, demurrage clocks, and live bulk inventory, so every billable event lands on the record as it happens.
