Merchants is literally at the crossroads of America - the intersection of Interstates 80 and 35 in Des Moines, Iowa. Almost any place in the continental U.S. is just three days by truck, a few more by rail. It is no secret that a public warehouse offers storage. However we offer much more. We have established ourselves as specialists in Rail - to - Truck and Truck - to - Rail, serving the paper, lumber, manufacturing, and agriculture industries.
