Why Pharr matters on this corridor
Pharr, Texas is a key U.S. handoff point for RS Transfer’s Matamoros–South Texas border moves. When the lane calls for a Pharr delivery instead of — or in addition to — Brownsville, we coordinate Mexico-side trailer preparation and the crossing so partner U.S. carriers can pick up on the Texas side with clear documentation.
Pharr sits in the McAllen–Pharr commercial corridor that many shippers already use for Reynosa-adjacent and broader Rio Grande Valley freight. RS Transfer’s role remains specific: the border transfer, not domestic U.S. long-haul.
What we operate (and what partners cover)
RS Transfer handles the transfer between Matamoros / Río Bravo and the U.S. handover at Pharr. After that handoff, inland U.S. legs are covered by partner U.S. carriers. Mexico interior linehaul connects through Internacional de Carga RS.
Pharr is an RS Transfer operating point and U.S. handoff location on this corridor. Contact operations with your quote request for appointment windows and yard guidance.
Choosing Pharr vs Brownsville usually comes down to the receiving carrier, the consignee’s region, and bridge or appointment constraints. Share those constraints in the quote request. We will recommend the handoff that fits the lane — without stretching RS Transfer into U.S. long-haul we do not operate.
Equipment for Pharr handoffs
Pharr transfers use the same equipment set as the rest of our border network:
- Dry van for general freight
- Refrigerated (reefer) for temperature-conscious loads
- Flatbed for industrial and specialized freight
RS Transfer is CTPAT certified. Share lane, equipment type, commodity, weight, and requested dates on the quote form so we can confirm Pharr vs Brownsville handoff fit.
