How it works

From empty acreage to a signed shipper, in three steps.

01

Assess

We verify rail access, connections, track and switch condition, cost to serve, and grant eligibility. You get a scored readiness report.

02

Package and list

Your site gets a profile page, spec sheet and map, then goes out to the listing platforms buyers search, with every inquiry tracked.

03

Generate shipper demand

We identify nearby shippers trucking rail-friendly freight, reach out by commodity and lane, and hand you qualified meetings.

Want a preview before you commit to anything? See the shippers already near your site, no assessment required.

Questions

What people ask us first.

Do I need track in place already?
No. We assess whatever is there now, from a cleared pad with no track at all to an existing spur that needs rehab, and the cost-to-serve and funding tools help either way.
What does SpurSite actually verify?
Rail access and the serving railroad's own commitment, track and switch condition, interchange routing, site physicals, utilities, zoning and environmental status, and funding fit, each scored on the same rubric.
Does my site go public automatically?
No. Nothing about your profile goes live until you've reviewed and approved the exact text, photos and facts we plan to publish.
What if I have more than one site?
Multi-site clients get a portfolio view: a map and table across every site, with readiness, pipeline and funding status for each one in one place.
What if I need funding before I have a shipper lined up?
That is exactly the gap we work: a funding plan for the rail work itself, run alongside the search for the shipper who will use it.

Need the money before the shipper?

We can help fund the spur, then help fill the site it serves.
