We offer bunker service to vessels calling at these ports. In addition, Foss tows barges with limestone, gravel, aluminum, and other general cargo.
Customer satisfaction is our primary goal.
The Columbia and Snake rivers flow through some of the most productive land in the world. Today, weekly scheduled tows transport agricultural products such as peas, beans, lentils, flour, hay cubes, alfalfa products, as well as milk carton stock and dimensional lumber, from the ports of Lewiston, Idaho, and Umatilla, Oregon, to Portland, Oregon for export overseas. Refrigerated containers laden with french fries and other perishable commodities are shipped in special barges outfitted with generators. The refrigerated containers are loaded into the wells of the barge and stacked four high. The units are then plugged into the barge and electronically monitored to ensure proper temperature control.
