Intermodal Driver Database

The UIIA Intermodal Driver Database (IDD) is the most comprehensive and accurate database of North American intermodal carriers available. With demographic data on more than 750,000 drivers (290,000 active drivers) representing 5,300-plus trucking companies, the IDD enhances the ability of intermodal load centers and equipment providers to positively identify all persons attempting to enter their facilities and helps restrict unauthorized access.

The IDD system can:

  • Verify the identity of drivers and validate their background information;
  • Match drivers to companies that are authorized to conduct business at an intermodal facility;
  • Assist load center facilities with managing their security risks;
  • Account for personnel access to facilities and activities of authorized personnel;
  • Minimize the need for redundant credentials;
  • Build on existing technology;
  • Minimize the risk of unauthorized release of personal information.

The IDD offers the potential to:

  • Increase cargo/unit visibility and theft prevention;
  • Improve motor carrier and terminal efficiency by reducing vehicle queue times.

The IDD, partnered with the UIIA program, transmits accurate and up-to-date information to UIIA Equipment Providers on drivers along with Motor Carrier interchange status via customized electronic data feeds.

For more information on the IDD, Download the IDD User Guide or Contact Our Office at (877) 438-8442.
