Your Port for Business

The Port of Tacoma, our deep-water port, is an epicenter for containerized cargo, bulk, breakbulk, aerospace components, automobiles and more. As part of the Northwest Seaport Alliance, the port is the fourth largest container gateway in North America, making it easy and efficient to ship products across the globe.

Move goods by road

Tacoma-Pierce County’s West Coast location conveniently places it on the map of major roadways. I-90 connects the east and west coast of the United States and I-5 connects Southern California to Washington state, touching both the Mexican and Canadian borders. In addition, the Pierce County Washington Planning and Zoning Commission ensures that roadways and local infrastructure are serving the community in the best possible way.
